A striking display face built from hefty, geometric letterforms with abrupt, razor-thin cut-ins that create an incised, stencil-like rhythm. Many glyphs show split strokes, triangular notches, and hairline joins that exaggerate counters and terminals, producing a sculpted look rather than a conventional continuous stroke. Proportions lean broad with large, rounded bowls (notably in O/C/G) and assertive verticals, while curves and diagonals are pared back to clean, high-impact shapes. The lowercase maintains a compact, solid silhouette with occasional unexpected apertures and wedge cuts that add texture at text sizes.
Best suited to large headlines, magazine cover lines, posters, and brand marks where its carved contrasts and cut-in details can read clearly. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or packaging titles when ample size and spacing are available to preserve the fine incisions.
The overall tone feels modern and theatrical—equal parts editorial sophistication and graphic provocation. Its sharp interruptions and stark light–dark patterning evoke couture branding, art-book typography, and contemporary poster design where attitude matters as much as readability.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary display voice by combining hefty geometric foundations with incisive, hairline interruptions that create a signature texture. It prioritizes memorable silhouette and high-impact rhythm for branding and editorial statement typography.
The alphabet shows deliberate irregularities in internal detailing from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, custom-made feel. Several characters rely on extremely thin connecting strokes or slits, which heighten the visual tension and can become key focal points in large-scale settings.
