A geometric display face built from thin, monoline outlines with a consistent inline channel that reads like a doubled stroke. Curves are frequently faceted into octagonal turns, giving round letters (C, G, O, Q) a crisp, chamfered geometry, while diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y stay straight and clean. Counters are open and airy, terminals tend to be squared, and the overall construction feels drawn with a precise plotting-pen rhythm rather than a brush. Figures and capitals keep a steady, engineered proportion; lowercase is compact and simplified, with occasional distinctive details such as the looped g and slightly angular s.
Best suited to display settings where the inline detailing and faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, logotypes, event posters, product packaging, and stylized signage. It works especially well on high-contrast backgrounds where the hollow/inline structure stays crisp and legible.
The inline-and-outline construction evokes signage, chrome trim, and neon tubing, blending an Art Deco sensibility with a light techno feel. Its faceted curves and consistent line logic create a sleek, schematic tone that reads as modern-retro and intentionally constructed rather than handwritten.
The design appears intended to provide a distinctive, decorative all-caps and mixed-case voice with a constructed, geometric backbone, using inline detailing to add depth and a metallic/neon suggestion without increasing weight. The consistent chamfered curvature points to an aim for a unified, architectural rhythm across letters and numerals.
The thin strokes and internal inline detail create a shimmering texture at larger sizes, while smaller sizes may lose the inner channel and corner facets. The faceting is applied consistently across rounded forms, giving the design a cohesive, architectural personality.
