A decorative inline outline face with tall, slender proportions and an even, monoline contour. Strokes are rendered as a clean outer outline with a parallel inner line that creates a hollow, sign-painter “inline” effect. Curves are smooth and rounded, while many terminals finish with small flares and gentle hooks, giving the shapes a slightly ornamental, hand-drawn feel. Spacing and widths vary naturally across letters, and the overall rhythm is vertical and airy, with ample internal counters and a crisp, open silhouette.
Best used at medium to large sizes where the double-line outline can stay crisp and legible. It suits headlines, posters, storefront or event signage, product packaging, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a vintage inline look. For body text or small UI sizes, the fine outline structure is more likely to lose clarity.
The font evokes early 20th-century display typography—part Art Deco, part vintage signage—combining refinement with a touch of playful flourish. Its light, outlined construction reads as elegant and theatrical rather than utilitarian, suited to designs that want a classic, boutique personality.
The design appears intended as a display-oriented outline face that delivers an inline, engraved or neon-sign impression while maintaining a refined, tall silhouette. The small flares and occasional curls add personality without breaking overall consistency, aiming for classic showcard elegance with a lightly whimsical finish.
Uppercase forms feel stately and columnar, while the lowercase introduces more character through looped descenders and softly curled terminals (notably in letters like g, j, and y). Numerals follow the same inline outline logic and remain delicate, with rounded bowls and minimal stroke modulation, emphasizing a consistent, airy presence.
