A sharply contrasted sans with geometric construction and dramatic hairline-to-bold transitions. Many letters pair extremely thin verticals with heavy horizontal bars or thickened curve segments, creating a segmented, almost stenciled rhythm without true breaks. Round forms (C, O, Q, e) are built from clean circular arcs with flattened or thickened terminals, while straight-sided glyphs (E, F, H, I, T) emphasize crisp right angles and long, even crossbars. The lowercase keeps a compact, tidy profile with single-storey a and g, minimal modulation in counters, and consistently fine ascenders/descenders that read as precise vertical strokes.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairlines and internal contrast can be appreciated, such as headlines, brand marks, poster typography, and editorial display. It can also work for short pull quotes or packaging callouts, where its crisp geometry and contrast add personality without relying on ornament.
The overall tone is modern and display-forward, combining elegance with a slightly sci‑fi, techno feel. The extreme contrast and engineered stroke placement give it a fashion/editorial edge and a sense of precision that feels intentional and contemporary.
The font appears designed to deliver a memorable, high-contrast sans voice by exaggerating structural contrast and simplifying forms into geometric components. Its intention is to stand out in display settings through a refined, engineered aesthetic and a strong horizontal signature.
The design leans on consistent horizontal emphasis and thin vertical scaffolding, producing a distinctive texture in text where vertical rhythm becomes airy while horizontals anchor the line. Numerals echo the same logic with bold cross-strokes and lightly drawn uprights, keeping the set visually cohesive.
