A narrow, upright inline display face with a hollowed, double-stroke construction that reads as an outline with an internal parallel line. Strokes stay largely monoline, with rounded bowls and clean, squared terminals; joins are tidy and geometry-forward rather than calligraphic. Curves are smooth and fairly circular (notably in O/Q/C), while straight-sided forms (E/F/H/N) keep a rigid, architectural rhythm. Spacing appears open and consistent, and the figures mirror the letterforms with similarly rounded, streamlined silhouettes.
Best used at display sizes for headlines, poster typography, storefront or event signage, and brand marks where the inline construction can stay crisp. It can also work for short packaging callouts or section headers, but the decorative interior line is likely to lose clarity at small sizes or in dense paragraphs.
The inline detailing and tall proportions evoke classic signage and Art Deco-era titling, with a neon-tube or engraved display sensibility. The overall tone feels refined and theatrical—decorative without becoming whimsical—suited to attention-grabbing headings that still look orderly and polished.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic inline look for impactful display typography, combining tall, condensed proportions with a precise, engraved/neon-like interior detail. It prioritizes visual style and rhythmic consistency across the set over neutral readability in long-form text.
The inner line sits evenly within the outer contour, creating a consistent “channeled” effect across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Several lowercase forms lean toward simplified, single-storey construction (e.g., a, g), reinforcing a clean, modernized display character rather than a text-face feel.
