A high-contrast display sans with sculpted, flared stroke endings and a distinctly modulated vertical rhythm. Many letters lean on thick vertical stems paired with hairline cross-strokes and tapered joins, creating a chiseled, ink-trap-like sparkle in counters and apertures. Curves are clean and elliptical, while terminals often resolve into sharp points or narrow wedges rather than full serifs, keeping the overall silhouette sleek despite the dramatic stroke modulation. Proportions skew toward tall capitals and a relatively small lowercase, with compact bowls and tight internal spaces that emphasize the black–white patterning at text sizes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine styling, posters, and brand marks where the dramatic contrast can do the heavy lifting. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes, especially when generous tracking and line spacing are available to preserve its delicate hairlines.
The font reads as sophisticated and theatrical—an editorial voice that feels fashion-forward and slightly vintage in spirit without becoming ornamental. Its stark contrast and crisp edges suggest luxury, curated taste, and confident headline energy.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion display tone using extreme stroke modulation and sharpened terminals while staying within a sans framework. The goal appears to be strong visual impact and an upscale editorial texture rather than neutral, continuous reading.
The numerals mirror the same contrast and tapering, with slender diagonals and prominent vertical stress. Several glyphs show intentionally irregular, hand-cut nuances in stem swelling and terminal shaping, adding personality while maintaining a consistent overall system.
