A heavy display serif with a distinctive inline cut that runs through the strokes, producing a carved, striped effect. Letterforms are compact and sturdy with pronounced vertical stress, rounded bowls, and crisp terminals; serifs read as bracketed and slightly flared, giving the shapes a poster-ready solidity. The inline detail varies with stroke direction—appearing as multiple vertical channels in stems and curved cut-ins in bowls—creating a lively, engraved texture while preserving clear silhouettes. Numerals are equally weighty and decorative, with the inline treatment adding dimensionality to otherwise simple, bold forms.
Best suited to headlines, titling, posters, signage, and packaging where the inline carving can be appreciated. It also works well for logo wordmarks and event materials that want a vintage showcard or deco-flavored voice, especially in high-contrast black-and-white applications.
The font evokes a classic marquee and Art Deco sensibility: confident, decorative, and a little theatrical. The inline carving adds a sense of depth and craft, suggesting engraved signage or vintage packaging rather than neutral text typography.
Designed as a decorative display serif that combines bold silhouettes with an inline engraving to add depth, motion, and an ornamental finish. The goal appears to be immediate impact and a period-evocative texture suitable for branding and large-format typography.
The internal striping creates strong rhythm at larger sizes, but the fine cut-ins can visually fill in at small sizes or on low-resolution outputs. Counters stay fairly open for a display face, yet the overall texture becomes darker and more patterned as tracking tightens.
