A sharply contrasted display face with tall, condensed proportions and a pronounced vertical rhythm. Strokes alternate between sturdy, ink-trap-free stems and extremely fine hairlines, creating a crisp, high-fashion look. Terminals are clean and often tapered, with occasional calligraphic turns in letters like g, y, and s, and a narrow, upright stance throughout. Counters are generally tight and vertical, and the overall texture reads as dark-and-light striping rather than even color, especially in mixed-case settings.
Best suited to headlines, titles, pull quotes, and branding where high contrast can be shown at generous sizes. It works well for magazine mastheads, boutique packaging, beauty/fashion collateral, and poster typography where a dramatic, refined voice is desired.
The font conveys an editorial, boutique tone—polished and dramatic with a slightly vintage, stylized sophistication. The intense contrast and slender joins give it a delicate, upscale feel that suggests luxury, culture, and curated taste rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to bring a fashion-editorial contrast sensibility into a condensed, upright text palette, emphasizing elegance and drama over neutrality. Its mix of rigid vertical stems and hairline detailing suggests a focus on impactful display typography and distinctive word shapes.
Uppercase forms feel particularly statuesque and title-oriented, while the lowercase introduces more personality through curved descenders and delicate linking strokes. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with thin cross-strokes and refined curves that can appear especially light at small sizes.
