A high-contrast, upright sans with sharply tapered joins and wedge-like terminals that give strokes a carved, chiseled feel. Curves are built from clean circular arcs, while many letters show thin hairline connections transitioning into bold verticals, creating a strong light–dark rhythm. Counters tend to be open and rounded, and the overall construction alternates between geometric simplicity (O, C, Q) and angular, pointed forms (A, M, W). The lowercase follows the same contrast logic with compact, rounded bowls and straight stems, and the figures mix sleek curves with pronounced thick–thin modulation.
This face suits short-form, high-impact typography such as headlines, brand marks, magazine covers, posters, and premium packaging. It works best at display sizes where its hairlines, tapered terminals, and bold-to-thin transitions remain clear and intentional.
The tone is sleek and theatrical, balancing modern minimalism with a decorative, display-minded edge. Its dramatic contrast and sharp terminals read as fashion-forward and slightly retro, evoking classic luxury signage and early-modernist poster lettering.
The design appears aimed at delivering a distinctive display sans that combines geometric letter skeletons with pronounced contrast and sharp, stylized terminals. The intent is to stand out with a luxurious, editorial presence while maintaining a largely serifless, modern silhouette.
Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally varied: some glyphs appear more condensed while others breathe wider, which enhances a crafted, titling-oriented texture. Dots and small details (like i/j tittle and some inner joins) are crisp and prominent, reinforcing the graphic, high-contrast character.
