A crisp, high-contrast roman with smooth, drawn curves and tapered joins that create a sculpted rhythm. Strokes modulate noticeably between thick verticals and hairline horizontals, with generally sharp, clean terminals and a controlled, upright stance. Proportions feel balanced with open counters and clear interior space; round letters (O, C, G) are broad and even, while straight-sided forms (H, I, N) stay rigid and stable. Lowercase shows a straightforward structure with a two-storey a and single-storey g, compact apertures, and tidy, round dots on i and j. Numerals are lining-style with similarly high contrast and elegant, slightly calligraphic curves.
Best suited to display typography where contrast can be appreciated—magazine titles, editorial headlines, branding wordmarks, posters, and book covers. It can also work for short text blocks in print or high-resolution digital layouts where the fine hairlines remain distinct.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, combining modern clarity with a hint of classical sophistication from its strong contrast and hairline details. It reads as confident and premium rather than casual, lending a composed, institutional feel to headlines and display settings.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast voice that feels premium and controlled, pairing sharp structure with refined curves for editorial and brand-forward typography.
At larger sizes the thin horizontals and fine details add elegance and sparkle, while the consistent vertical stress keeps words looking orderly. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates an even texture with pronounced thick–thin transitions in both caps and lowercase.
