A display-oriented sans with extreme thick–thin contrast, built from bold, almost stencil-like verticals paired with razor hairlines and tapered joins. Curves are glossy and elliptical, with frequent wedge cuts and sharp internal corners that create a faceted, sculptural feel. Many glyphs introduce delicate, swooping hairline strokes and thin entry/exit arcs, while other letters resolve into flat, blunt terminals, producing a deliberate mix of softness and precision. The rhythm is wide and open, with prominent counters and strong vertical emphasis that reads best at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, covers, and branding where the dramatic contrast and hairlines can render cleanly. It works well for luxury packaging, beauty/fashion campaigns, and high-impact posters, particularly when given ample size and whitespace. For dense text or small UI sizes, its ultra-fine details are likely to be less forgiving than more utilitarian faces.
The overall tone is glamorous and high-drama, reminiscent of fashion mastheads and premium editorial typography. The hairline flourishes and knife-edge contrast add a sense of sophistication and theatrical tension, while the clean, sans foundation keeps it contemporary rather than nostalgic. It projects confidence, exclusivity, and a curated, art-directed sensibility.
The design intent appears to be a modern, high-fashion display sans that maximizes contrast and silhouette for immediate visual impact. By combining bold vertical slabs with delicate hairline gestures, it aims to deliver a premium editorial voice and a distinctive, art-directed texture in large-scale typography.
The design leans on contrast and negative-space carving more than traditional serif detailing, so fine strokes become a key part of the personality. Numerals and capitals feel especially poster-ready, with striking silhouettes and crisp, high-impact black shapes that can dominate a layout. In longer lines, the alternating heavy stems and hairline connectors create a distinctive sparkle that can quickly become the main visual texture.
