A sharply geometric sans with dramatic thick–thin behavior created by bold, rounded strokes intersected by razor-thin vertical and diagonal hairlines. Counters are generally circular to oval, with many letters built from partial bowls and open arcs that are visually “cut” by straight, needle-like strokes, producing intentional breaks and segmented joins. Curves are smooth and highly polished, while terminals often resolve into clean, flat endings; several diagonals appear as hairline slashes that contrast strongly with the heavier curves. Overall spacing and rhythm feel deliberately stylized, with distinctive, high-impact silhouettes in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where its graphic contrast and segmented construction can be appreciated—headlines, poster titles, fashion/editorial layouts, brand marks, and striking packaging or campaign typography. It works especially well at larger sizes where the hairline cuts remain clear and intentional.
The font reads as modern and design-forward, with a couture/editorial sensibility and a slightly futuristic, tech-fashion edge. The thin slicing lines add tension and precision, giving text a crafted, concept-driven look rather than a purely utilitarian tone.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a clean geometric sans through a high-fashion, experimental lens—using hairline incisions and partial bowls to create memorable shapes while maintaining an overall contemporary, minimalist structure.
The most recognizable motif is the recurring hairline stroke that bisects or anchors bowls (seen across rounded letters and some diagonals), creating a consistent “cut” aesthetic. Numerals echo the same language with circular forms and horizontal or vertical interruptions, keeping figures visually aligned with the letterforms.
