A high-contrast sans with sculpted, geometric construction and sharp, tapered terminals. Curves show pronounced thick-to-thin modulation with an almost calligraphic stress, while straight strokes stay crisp and clean. Proportions feel open and spacious, with rounded forms (C, O, Q) drawn as elegant ovals and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) cut with knife-like precision. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, modern structure with single-storey forms (a, g), round i-dots, and compact joins, creating a rhythmic alternation between bold verticals and hairline transitions.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated—magazine and web editorials, fashion and beauty branding, posters, album/film titling, and premium packaging. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers where a strong, stylish voice is desired without ornamental serifs.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, pairing minimalist sans construction with couture-like contrast. It reads as contemporary and design-forward, with a slightly theatrical elegance that suits premium, style-conscious messaging.
The design appears intended to merge modern sans geometry with expressive stroke modulation, delivering a sleek, high-end look that stands apart from neutral grotesks. Its forms prioritize visual impact and sophistication for branding and editorial settings.
Distinctive details include the circular counterforms and inset-like thinning on bowls (notably in B, D, P, R) and a Q with a clean diagonal tail. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with sleek curves and simplified, editorial-friendly shapes that maintain clarity at display sizes.
