A high-contrast, display-minded sans with razor-thin hairlines and strong vertical stems. Forms are narrow and tall with an upright stance, generous internal whitespace, and clean, sharply terminated strokes that keep the silhouettes crisp. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the contrast creates a rhythmic shimmer in text, especially where thin horizontals and joins meet heavier verticals.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short bursts of copy where its contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes. It fits magazine layouts, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and sleek identity work where a refined, contemporary tone is desired.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, evoking contemporary editorial and fashion typography. Its sharp contrast and slender proportions feel poised and dramatic, lending a sense of sophistication and intentionality rather than warmth or informality.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion look within a clean sans framework, using extreme stroke contrast and narrow proportions to create a premium, editorial voice.
In continuous text, the alternating thick-and-thin strokes produce a lively texture that reads as stylish but attention-grabbing. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with delicate joins and light cross-strokes that emphasize an elegant, display-forward character.
