A sculptural display face with sharply modulated strokes that swing between hairline cuts and dense, dark stems. Many joins and terminals are treated as razor-thin diagonal slices, giving letters a carved, faceted look rather than conventional serifs. Curves are round and taut but frequently interrupted by sudden thins, while straight strokes stay crisp and vertical, creating a strong light–dark rhythm across words. The lowercase shows compact, rounded bowls with abrupt transitions (notably in a, e, g, and s), and the figures mix bold geometry with delicate, knife-like entry and exit strokes.
Best suited to large-scale settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, title cards, posters, and premium packaging where the sharp hairlines and bold stems can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when set with generous tracking and ample size.
The overall tone is glossy and theatrical—confident, stylish, and intentionally attention-grabbing. The hairline slashes add a couture, magazine-like edge, while the heavy verticals keep it authoritative and headline-forward.
The design appears intended to merge modern, geometric construction with a high-fashion, cut-paper/calligraphic accent system. Its repeated diagonal slits and pronounced stroke modulation suggest a focus on memorable, logo-like word shapes and impactful editorial typography rather than neutral body text.
At text sizes the extreme thins can visually recede, so the design reads best where its cut-in diagonals and dramatic contrast have room to breathe. The distinctive diagonal incision motif appears repeatedly (e.g., in A, K, M, N, V/W, and X), helping maintain a consistent signature across the set.
