A display face with strong contrast expressed through wedge-like, tapering strokes and sharply cut terminals. Letterforms are predominantly upright and generously proportioned, with a sculpted, cut-paper rhythm where thick vertical masses are punctuated by thin, hairline connections. Curves are compact and geometric, often featuring teardrop-like counters (notably in O and o), while diagonals and joins (V, W, N, k) emphasize crisp angles. The lowercase keeps a sturdy, blocky presence, with single-storey a and g and a tall, narrow f that adds vertical snap to text.
This font is best used for large-scale typography where its sharp contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated—headlines, posters, magazine covers, branding marks, and packaging. It can also work for short callouts or section titles where a strong, characterful voice is desired.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, evoking vintage headline typography with a fashion/editorial edge. Its dramatic contrast and carved terminals feel confident and slightly playful, suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact display look by combining wide proportions with pronounced tapered strokes and crisp, angular terminals. It prioritizes visual drama and a distinctive silhouette, aiming for memorable headline presence and brand character.
Spacing in the samples reads intentionally open, helping the dense black shapes breathe at large sizes. Numerals follow the same sculpted logic, with distinctive contrasts and stylized curves that match the letterforms’ cut, flared finishing.
