Sans Decor specimen from ParaType

A 1994 display sans from Double Alex Font Studio featuring bold letterforms with decorative inline striping, available in two subfamilies each with normal and oblique cuts.

About

Designed by Alexey Chekulaev at Double Alex Font Studio in 1994, Sans Decor applies a continuous inline treatment to heavy sans-serif letterforms, creating a layered visual effect suited to large-scale poster use. Two subfamilies, A and B, each offer normal and oblique styles, giving four styles in total. The inline detailing is the defining characteristic, visible across both uppercase and lowercase glyphs in the specimen.

Classification

The specimen shows a heavy sans-serif construction with prominent inline white striping cut through the thick strokes, a classic poster display treatment. The letterforms are bold and upright with decorative interior lines rather than any structural serif feature.
