A high-contrast sans with a distinctly geometric, cut-paper feel, built from crisp straight strokes paired with large, near-circular bowls. Many glyphs alternate between thick vertical masses and hairline connections, creating a strong light–dark rhythm across words. Curves are clean and rounded, while joins and terminals tend toward sharp, clipped finishes; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) read as bold, faceted shapes. Proportions feel contemporary and display-oriented, with a relatively tall x-height and simplified, monoline-like horizontals that emphasize the vertical contrast.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book display typography, and brand identities where contrast and silhouette are meant to be noticed. It can also work well on posters, packaging, and short marketing lines where large sizes allow the hairlines and internal white shapes to stay clear.
The overall tone is glamorous and architectural, blending modern minimalism with a vintage, Art Deco sensibility. The extreme thick–thin interplay gives it a dramatic, fashion-forward voice that feels upscale and curated rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern display sans with strong Art Deco cues, using extreme contrast and simplified geometry to create instantly recognizable letterforms. It prioritizes visual rhythm and standout shapes for branding and editorial impact over neutral, text-first invisibility.
The font’s visual identity relies on deliberate stroke omission and asymmetric weighting in several forms, producing a lively, slightly poster-like texture in running text. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with bold verticals and airy counters that keep figures visually striking.
