A highly slanted, hairline display face built from monoline strokes and geometric curves, with frequent use of solid, filled counters that turn bowls into bold teardrop and oval masses. The drawing alternates between airy outline-like construction and dense black forms, creating a staccato rhythm and strong figure–ground shifts within words. Curves are smooth and circular, terminals tend toward sharp or tapered ends, and joins often feel intentionally offbeat, emphasizing an irregular, collage-like construction. Proportions are generally compact with a moderate x-height, while letter widths vary noticeably, especially where filled bowls dominate the silhouette.
Best suited to short, prominent settings where its alternating thin-and-solid construction can be appreciated—headlines, poster titles, fashion/editorial layouts, branding marks, and packaging accents. It can also work as a stylistic secondary typeface for pull quotes or section openers where a highly distinctive voice is desired.
The overall tone is quirky and fashion-forward, mixing delicate elegance with unexpected ink-heavy punches. It feels experimental and boutique, with a playful, slightly surreal personality driven by the contrast between fragile strokes and bold filled interiors.
The design appears intended to subvert a conventional italic display sans by inserting bold, filled counterforms as visual beats within an otherwise hairline, geometric structure. The goal seems to be creating an instantly recognizable, graphic texture that reads as both refined and mischievous in display typography.
Legibility is most dependent on context: the filled bowls and collapsed interior spaces create distinctive word shapes, but reduce internal differentiation at smaller sizes. Numerals and punctuation follow the same logic, using thin strokes punctuated by occasional solid forms that read as graphic accents.
