A geometric outline face built from a single exterior contour with a consistent inner inline, creating a hollow, double-line look. Strokes are mostly monoline in feel, with rounded corners and softened terminals, while some diagonals introduce sharp, faceted joins. Counters are open and generous, and curves are drawn as smooth, near-rectangular rounds, giving letters a clean, engineered rhythm. The lowercase uses simple, single-storey forms with a tall x-height and compact ascenders/descenders, keeping texture even across lines; figures follow the same outlined construction and read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, title cards, and branding marks where the outlined construction can stay crisp. It also works well for packaging, event graphics, and tech-themed layouts that benefit from a clean geometric voice with a decorative contour treatment.
The overall tone is futuristic and retro at the same time—evoking arcade signage, sci‑fi titles, and technical labeling. The hollow outline and inline detailing add a playful, attention-grabbing sparkle without feeling ornate, leaning toward a crisp, gadget-like personality.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display alphabet that combines simple geometric letterforms with an outlined, inline treatment for a stylized “neon tube” or “schematic” effect. Its consistent construction and open counters suggest a focus on legibility at larger sizes while delivering a distinct, era-evocative character.
Because the design is defined by outlines and internal inlines rather than filled strokes, it performs best when given enough size and contrast against the background; tight spacing and very small sizes can cause the interior detailing to visually merge. The mix of rounded geometry with occasional angular cuts adds energy and a slightly industrial edge.
