A hairline geometric sans with a distinctive superelliptical construction: rounds are built from rounded-rectangle curves while straight segments stay crisp and planar. Strokes are extremely thin overall, punctuated by occasional heavier wedge-like fills that act as stylized counters or terminals, creating a dramatic light/solid interplay without becoming fully shaded. The design favors tall proportions, tight apertures, and simplified joins; diagonals are sharp and economical, and many forms rely on open corners and precise right angles rather than continuous curves. Numerals and lowercase follow the same modular logic, producing a consistent, engineered rhythm across the set.
Best suited to display settings where its hairline strokes and decorative black wedges can be appreciated—posters, headlines, brand marks, fashion/editorial titling, and premium packaging. It is most effective at larger sizes and in short-to-medium runs of text where the stylization remains legible and intentional.
The font reads as sleek and modern with a strong Art Deco and sci‑fi edge—refined, stylized, and slightly theatrical. Its sharp geometry and selective black accents give it a fashion-forward, display-centric voice that feels curated and graphic rather than neutral.
Likely designed to reinterpret geometric sans conventions through a superellipse-based, modular system, mixing hairline outlines with selective filled shapes to add contrast and signature. The aim appears to be a distinctive, high-style display face that communicates modernity and sophistication while nodding to Art Deco geometry.
In text samples, the extreme thin strokes and open construction create a light, airy texture, while the intermittent solid wedges draw attention and introduce a decorative cadence. Spacing and structure feel intentionally irregular in places due to the mixed stroke treatments, which reinforces its display character.
