A high-contrast display sans with crisp, sculpted outlines and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Curves are clean and geometric, with smooth bowls and tapered joins that create a sharp, polished silhouette. Terminals are mostly sheared or knife-like rather than rounded, giving letters a precise finish, while counters remain open and balanced for clarity at larger sizes. Overall spacing and proportions feel generous, producing an airy texture despite the heavy strokes.
Best suited to headlines, covers, and large-format typography where the contrast and tapered details can be appreciated. It works well for brand marks, packaging, and campaign graphics that aim for a refined, premium voice, and can also serve as a strong display companion in editorial layouts.
The tone is confident and editorial, combining elegance with a dramatic, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp modulation and clean geometry read as premium and formal, with a modernized classic feel that suits statement typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast sans look that feels luxurious and attention-grabbing while staying clean and structured. It prioritizes dramatic stroke modulation and crisp finishing for impactful display use.
Numerals show the same contrast-driven construction, with notably thin horizontals and thicker vertical or curved strokes that heighten the display character. The design’s crisp hairlines and pointed details are visually striking but are likely to be most comfortable when given sufficient size and reproduction quality.
