A decorative outline typeface built from a thin monoline contour with an interior inline and a consistent offset “shadow” line that creates a layered, dimensional look. Letterforms lean toward simple, rounded geometry with gently softened corners and open counters, while terminals are clean and minimally detailed. The shadow/offset component tracks the outer contour closely, producing a crisp double-line rhythm that stays readable at display sizes and gives the glyphs a buoyant, airy presence.
Best suited to headlines and short display text where the outlined, shadowed construction can be appreciated—posters, playful branding, packaging, signage, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for pull quotes or section titles in editorial layouts when used at sufficiently large sizes and with ample contrast against the background.
The overall tone feels cheerful and nostalgic, with a hand-drawn poster energy and a friendly, toy-like charm. The outlined construction and offset shadow add a sense of light depth that reads as playful rather than formal.
Likely designed to deliver a lightweight, dimensional display voice by combining a hollow outline with a consistent offset shadow, creating a crisp decorative texture that feels approachable and retro-influenced.
Caps show a mix of straight-sided and rounded structures, and the numerals follow the same outline-plus-offset system for strong stylistic consistency. Spacing appears comfortable in the sample text, with the shadow detail remaining distinct in larger settings where the layered lines can breathe.
