A clean, wide-proportioned sans with noticeable contrast and a slightly calligraphic modulation that shows up in tapered terminals and crisp, angled joins. Curves are broad and smooth with open counters, while straights stay firm and vertical, giving a steady baseline rhythm. Several glyphs mix simple geometric construction with occasional thin strokes and hairline-like details (notably in diagonals and select capitals), creating a refined, high-contrast texture without feeling ornate.
Best suited to display settings where its width and contrast can create presence—headlines, deck copy, posters, and prominent UI or marketing moments. It can also work for brand identities and packaging where a modern sans is desired with a more distinctive, editorial finish than a purely neutral grotesk.
The overall tone feels contemporary and polished, with an editorial confidence that reads as designed rather than generic. Its contrast and sharp finishing details add a slightly fashion-forward, cultured flavor, balancing clarity with a bit of visual sparkle.
The design appears intended to bridge a modern, geometric sans foundation with selective contrast and sharpened terminals to add character. It aims to provide strong headline impact and a refined, curated tone while keeping letterforms largely straightforward and readable.
Capitals present strong, simplified silhouettes, while lowercase forms maintain a straightforward, readable structure with a clear distinction between rounds and stems. Numerals appear modern and display-friendly, with smooth bowls and clean joins that keep them consistent with the alphabet’s crisp, contemporary rhythm.
