A clean sans with geometric construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads as crisp and graphic. Round letters are built from near-perfect bowls with narrowed joins and occasional horizontal thickening, while straight strokes stay sharp and clean. Several terminals show subtle flaring and tapered entry/exit strokes, giving curves a refined, sculpted finish. Proportions are generous and airy, with open counters, wide caps, and a calm, evenly spaced rhythm that remains legible despite the contrast.
Performs best in headlines, identity work, packaging, and poster-style applications where its contrast and sculpted curves can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the thin strokes stay clear.
The overall tone feels modernist and slightly Art Deco: polished, stylish, and display-forward. The high-contrast treatment adds elegance and a hint of luxury, while the geometric skeleton keeps it contemporary and structured.
Likely designed to blend geometric sans clarity with a fashion-forward, contrasted finish, delivering a distinctive voice without becoming ornamental. The intent seems oriented toward contemporary display typography that feels premium and carefully drawn.
Distinctive details include the single-storey ‘a’ and ‘g’, the compact, rounded ‘e’ with a strong horizontal bar, and numerals that echo the same contrast logic with smooth, circular forms. Diacritics aren’t shown; punctuation in the sample appears clean and minimal, supporting a streamlined texture in text.
