A sharply contrasted, geometric sans with hairline curves paired against dense vertical stems and occasional filled half-forms. Bowls and counters tend toward near-perfect circles, while many letters lean on straight, monoline horizontals and clean terminals, creating a cut-paper, inlaid feel. Proportions are tall and display-oriented, with a notably small lowercase body relative to the capitals and frequent use of thin connecting strokes that heighten the light–dark rhythm. The overall texture alternates between airy hairlines and solid blocks, producing a distinctly patterned word shape on the page.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, magazine covers, and branding where its contrast and graphic black shapes can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling in layouts with ample whitespace, but it benefits from larger sizes and careful tracking to keep the hairlines from visually disappearing.
The tone is glamorous and architectural, evoking classic Art Deco signage and high-fashion editorial typography. Its stark contrast and geometric construction feel refined and theatrical, lending an upscale, stylized voice rather than a neutral utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to reinterpret geometric, Deco-inspired letterforms through extreme light–dark contrast and sculpted, partially filled forms. The goal seems to be maximum visual character and pattern at headline scale, prioritizing stylish silhouettes and rhythmic black shapes over neutral readability.
Several glyphs emphasize asymmetry through filled semicircles or heavy left-side massing, which creates strong directional rhythm across words. Numerals and capitals read as statement pieces, with the thins requiring generous size and spacing to stay crisp in text settings.
