A high-contrast display sans with expansive proportions and sharp, flared terminals that often resolve into triangular points. Curves are smooth and generously rounded, while strokes transition abruptly from hairline-thin to heavy, producing a crisp, chiseled rhythm. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and a single-storey g with a prominent ear, and the overall spacing reads airy due to the wide letterforms. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast, with elegant hairline diagonals and weighted bowls that keep the set visually consistent.
Best suited to headlines, titling, and short display copy where the sharp contrast and wide stance can be appreciated. It works well for fashion/editorial layouts, premium branding, posters, and packaging, especially in larger sizes with comfortable tracking.
The font conveys a poised, theatrical sophistication—luxury-leaning and slightly retro, with a sense of ceremony. Its contrast and flared endings create a dramatic voice suited to attention-grabbing statements rather than quiet utility.
The design appears intended to blend sans geometry with calligraphic contrast and flared terminals to deliver a refined, high-impact display voice. It prioritizes striking silhouette and luxe texture over neutral text economy.
Diagonal-heavy letters (like V, W, X, Y, and K) emphasize needle-like hairlines against thick stems, heightening the sparkle and texture at larger sizes. The design reads cleanly as a sans construction, but the pronounced flaring and contrast add a tailored, editorial finish.
