A high-contrast display face built from broad, weighty verticals and razor-thin connecting strokes. The letterforms are wide and assertive, with crisp, straight-sided geometry and smooth, taut curves. Serifs are extremely delicate and hairline-like, reading more as fine finishing strokes than substantial slabs, while joins and apertures stay clean and controlled. Lowercase forms show compact counters and a relatively low x-height, giving the text a punchy top-and-bottom rhythm, and numerals follow the same contrast pattern with prominent thick stems and fine hairlines.
Best used for headlines, pull quotes, covers, and large-format typography where its hairlines can remain visible and the contrast can read as intentional refinement. It can also serve premium branding and packaging when set with generous size and spacing to preserve its sharp details.
The overall tone is emphatic and editorial, with a polished, fashion-forward severity. Its strong thick–thin rhythm and wide stance create a sense of prestige and drama, suited to attention-grabbing statements and refined branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classical high-contrast display typography, prioritizing impact, elegance, and a strong vertical rhythm. Its proportions and contrast suggest it was drawn to excel in large sizes, where its fine terminals and hairlines can add sophistication without breaking down.
In the sample text, the thin strokes and hairline details become visually delicate at smaller sizes, while the heavy verticals remain dominant, producing a lively, high-contrast texture. Curved letters like C/O/S show pronounced modulation, and punctuation and dots appear stout against the hairlines, reinforcing the display-oriented character.
