A geometric sans with extreme contrast created by bold, rounded bowls and very fine, straight hairlines. Many letters are constructed from partial circular forms that appear sliced by horizontal cuts, with hairline joins, spines, and occasional diagonal connectors adding a technical, modular feel. Curves tend toward near-perfect arcs, while terminals are crisp and clean, producing a sharp black-and-white rhythm. Spacing and proportions read on the wide side, and the distinctive cut-ins and hairline strokes make the silhouette feel engineered rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to display typography where its cut-in bowls and hairline construction can be appreciated—headlines, posters, brand marks, and editorial covers. It can also work for short UI or packaging callouts when set large with generous spacing, but extended small text may lose the fine-line details.
The tone is modern and experimental, blending luxury-like contrast with a clinical, schematic precision. It feels forward-looking and slightly enigmatic, with a strong graphic presence that suggests design, technology, and contemporary culture contexts.
This font appears designed to explore high-contrast geometry within a sans framework, using hairline connectors and carved bowls to create a distinctive, contemporary signature. The intent reads as building a recognizable display voice that feels engineered, sleek, and visually rhythmic.
The design leans heavily on negative-space carving and hairline elements, which create striking detail at display sizes but can visually thin out in smaller settings. Several forms emphasize horizontals and circular counters, giving the alphabet a cohesive, systemized personality.
