A heavy, display-oriented face with broad proportions and clearly articulated thick–thin contrast. Curves are smooth and full, while joins and terminals often resolve into sharp, angled cuts, creating a crisp, sculpted silhouette. Counters are generally open and generous (notably in C, G, e, and a), and strokes show a consistent logic across rounds and straights, giving the set a cohesive rhythm. Numerals follow the same robust construction, with prominent curves and assertive diagonals that read cleanly at large sizes.
Best suited for headlines, poster typography, and brand marks where strong contrast and wide proportions can be appreciated. It also fits packaging, event graphics, and editorial display settings, especially when you want a bold, graphic voice with a refined edge.
The overall tone is confident and attention-grabbing, combining a contemporary, graphic presence with hints of classical contrast. It feels energetic and slightly theatrical due to the sweeping curves and angled terminals, making it well suited to statements rather than quiet utility text.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact display typography that remains orderly and legible, pairing broad, modern proportions with deliberate contrast and sharply cut terminals for a signature look.
The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, helping maintain a clean, straightforward texture. Many glyphs feature tapered or beveled endings instead of blunt cuts, adding visual motion and a distinctive, crafted finish across words.
