A high-contrast roman with crisp, tapered terminals and sharply defined joins. Stems swing from hairline-thin to weighty verticals, creating a striking light–dark rhythm across words. Counters are generously open and shapes feel slightly expanded, with smooth curves and restrained, minimal finishing. Overall spacing reads clean and controlled, and the numerals echo the same bold-vertical/hairline-horizontal structure for a cohesive texture in text and titling.
Best suited to display roles—magazine headlines, fashion and culture editorial layouts, brand marks, and posters—where its contrast and crisp detailing can be appreciated. It can work for short text passages when set with comfortable size and spacing, but its strongest impact is in larger typographic moments.
The tone is polished and assertive, combining a contemporary editorial sheen with a hint of classic calligraphic tension. It feels luxe and composed rather than playful, bringing a dramatic, high-end voice to headlines.
The design appears aimed at delivering an elegant, high-contrast voice with modern restraint: dramatic stroke modulation without ornate flourishes, optimized for impactful titles and sophisticated branding.
Round letters (like O, C, and G) emphasize sleek curvature against thin cross strokes, while diagonals and joins stay sharp and precise. The lowercase shows a readable, steady rhythm in continuous text, with contrast that becomes especially prominent at larger sizes.
