This typeface is markedly condensed with tall proportions and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes alternate between thick, weighty stems and extremely thin hairlines, creating sharp, high-contrast silhouettes and crisp internal apertures. Terminals are clean and minimal, with occasional tapered joins and pointed details (notably in diagonals and the leg of K), while curves are tightly controlled and elliptical. Overall spacing reads compact and columnar, and the figures echo the same condensed, high-contrast construction for a consistent texture in display settings.
Best suited to headlines, editorial display, fashion/beauty layouts, and brand marks that need a tall, sophisticated voice. It can also work for posters and packaging where the dramatic contrast and condensed footprint help fit more characters per line without losing presence.
The tone is polished and theatrical, balancing refined elegance with assertive impact. Its narrow, high-contrast forms evoke contemporary fashion and magazine typography, delivering a premium, curated feel that reads as both modern and slightly classic in spirit.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum elegance and impact in a compact width, using extreme contrast and disciplined vertical structure to create a premium display texture. It prioritizes stylistic presence and refined detail over neutral text utility.
In longer lines the strong verticals produce a striking striped texture, so it benefits from generous tracking and ample leading. Very thin hairlines and small interior counters suggest it will be most effective at display sizes and in high-quality reproduction where fine details remain intact.
