A high-contrast display sans with a sculpted, calligraphic construction. Strokes swing between hairline connectors and dense verticals, with crisp, knife-like joins and tapered, flared terminals that suggest a pen-nib logic without true serifs. Counters are generous and mostly rounded, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) and bowls show pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp tension points. Overall spacing feels open and airy in caps, with lowercase forms that keep a clean, contemporary skeleton while emphasizing dramatic stroke transitions.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and culture editorial layouts, branding lockups, posters, and logotypes where its contrast and hairline details can stay crisp. It can also work for short pull quotes or packaging titles when given ample size and breathing room.
The tone is refined and theatrical—polished enough for luxury contexts, but with a slightly edgy, fashion-forward sharpness. The hairline details and sweeping curves give it an editorial, headline-driven personality that reads as premium and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-end display voice by combining sans-like letter skeletons with dramatic thick–thin modulation and flared endings. It prioritizes visual impact and elegance over neutrality, making it a strong choice when the typography is meant to carry mood and identity.
Round characters like O, Q, and 0 present smooth oval proportions with subtle stress, and the Q shows a distinct, elegant tail. Several glyphs feature delicate hairline spurs and tapered strokes, which heighten contrast and add sparkle at larger sizes; at small sizes these details may require careful sizing and color management to avoid thinning out.
