A sturdy, contrasted sans with mostly straight-sided construction and selective rounding at corners and joins. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation, especially in curved letters, creating a slightly calligraphic rhythm while retaining a modern, largely sans structure. Terminals are generally clean and squared-off, with occasional softened/bracketed transitions where curves meet stems; counters are open and the overall fit feels measured rather than tight. Numerals follow the same disciplined geometry, with clear vertical stress and simple, readable forms.
This font suits headlines and display typography where its contrast and sturdy shapes can create presence without becoming ornate. It can also work in branding, packaging, and signage that need a crisp, modern look with a slightly editorial finish.
The tone is confident and pragmatic, with enough stroke modulation to feel editorial and crafted rather than purely utilitarian. It reads as modern and direct, suitable for design that wants clarity with a touch of sophistication.
The design appears intended to bridge a functional sans structure with noticeable stroke modulation, giving a contemporary face added character and hierarchy for display use while preserving legibility in mixed-case settings.
Uppercase forms feel authoritative with strong verticals and broad, stable proportions, while lowercase keeps a straightforward, workmanlike silhouette. The contrast adds texture in longer text without introducing decorative flourishes, helping the face maintain a clean, contemporary voice.
