A stylized display-oriented sans with tapered, wedge-like terminals and a distinctly drawn stroke modulation that gives many letters a carved or chiseled feel. Curves are smooth but often resolve into sharp points, while horizontals and diagonals end in angled cuts that add a rhythmic, slightly calligraphic texture. Proportions stay balanced with open counters and clear internal shapes; uppercase forms feel stately and geometric, while lowercase shows more personality in letters like a, g, and y, with pointed joins and thin spur-like details. Numerals follow the same language, mixing strong verticals with delicate, tapered finishing strokes for a unified texture across the set.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style typography, branding marks, and campaign or poster work where the crisp, tapered terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads and pull quotes, especially in clean layouts that benefit from a refined, contemporary edge.
The overall tone reads refined and intentional—modern, slightly dramatic, and fashion-forward without becoming ornate. Its sharp terminals and controlled modulation suggest sophistication and precision, lending an upscale, editorial character that stands out while remaining legible.
The font appears designed to bring a sleek, modern voice to sans letterforms by introducing controlled stroke modulation and sharp, angled terminals. The intention seems to balance clarity with distinctive detail, providing a premium display texture for brand and editorial settings.
The design creates visual sparkle through frequent fine tips and angled endings, which increases perceived sharpness and detail at larger sizes. Round letters (O, C, G, e) maintain a smooth silhouette while still showing pointed finishing strokes, producing a consistent contrast between softness and edge throughout text.
