A condensed, high-contrast display face with strong vertical emphasis and razor-thin hairlines. Strokes alternate between dense, solid stems and extremely fine connecting lines, producing a crisp, poster-like rhythm. Curves are taut and controlled, counters are relatively compact, and terminals tend to be clean and abrupt rather than softly bracketed. Overall spacing feels tight and efficient, with a deliberate, sculptural silhouette across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited for headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and brand marks where the dramatic contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes. It works especially well in editorial layouts, fashion/beauty packaging, and posters that benefit from a sleek, high-impact typographic voice.
The type conveys a polished, fashion-forward tone—confident, dramatic, and premium. Its stark contrast and narrow proportions create a sense of sophistication and intensity that reads as editorial and brand-led rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum elegance and impact through condensed proportions and extreme stroke contrast, creating a refined display tool for modern editorial and branding contexts.
Uppercase forms lean monumental and columnar, while the lowercase introduces a slightly more text-like cadence without losing the high-contrast character. Numerals follow the same vertical, cut-from-black feel, making them suited to impactful settings where figure style needs to match strong headline typography.
