A heavy, high-contrast sans with sculpted stroke modulation and crisp, wedge-like terminals. The outlines feel deliberately carved: joins are sharp, counters are generous, and several letters show tapered cuts and flared strokes that create a rhythmic, almost chiseled texture across words. Proportions read broadly geometric—round letters are near-circular and verticals are steady—while select glyphs introduce dynamic diagonals and incised details (notably in forms like K, M, W, X, and the tail on Q). Numerals follow the same approach, mixing sturdy bowls with thin, knife-like strokes for a strong display presence.
This font is best suited to display work where its contrast and carved details can be appreciated: editorial headlines, poster typography, brand marks, and packaging. It also works well for short pull quotes or section titles, especially when paired with a quieter text face for body copy.
The overall tone is confident and stylized, combining modern clarity with a fashion/editorial edge. Its contrast and sharpened terminals give it a dramatic, attention-grabbing voice that feels curated rather than utilitarian.
The likely intention is to offer a bold display sans that feels more refined and bespoke than a straightforward geometric: adding contrast, tapering, and sharp terminals to increase drama and visual identity while keeping letterforms broadly clean and contemporary.
The design relies on repeated tapering and internal cuts to create sparkle at large sizes; these thin features become a defining motif in both uppercase and lowercase. Curves are smooth and full, while diagonals and cross strokes often narrow to fine points, producing a distinct, graphic rhythm in headlines.
