A high-contrast, upright display face with crisp, tapered terminals and a sculptural, slightly calligraphic modulation. Strokes swing between hairline connections and dense, inky stems, creating a bright, sparkling rhythm across words. Counters are generous and oval-leaning, while joins and terminals often resolve into sharp points or thin beaks, giving the outlines a cut-paper precision. The overall construction feels clean and contemporary, with elegant curves, controlled asymmetry in a few forms, and a smooth, editorial texture in running text despite the pronounced contrast.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion/editorial layouts, posters, and brand marks where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short passages at comfortable sizes, especially in premium packaging or campaign copy where a refined, dramatic texture is desirable.
The tone is polished and fashion-forward, combining classic elegance with a modern, graphic edge. Its dramatic contrast and blade-like terminals read as confident and premium, suited to designs that want sophistication with a bit of bite.
Likely designed to deliver an elegant, contemporary display voice that feels luxurious and attention-grabbing. The strong thick–thin modulation and sharp terminals appear intended to add sophistication and visual tension, making typography itself a focal point.
Letterforms show a consistent tension between broad, weighty verticals and very fine connecting strokes, which makes spacing and word shapes feel lively. In the sample text, the face maintains strong presence at larger sizes, where the hairlines and pointed terminals become a key part of the personality.
