A monoline sans with a consistent, hairline stroke and a pronounced rightward slant. Proportions are tall and condensed, with generous vertical reach and tight horizontal width, creating an elongated rhythm across words. Curves are smooth and elliptical, while joins stay crisp and understated; terminals are clean with little to no flare. Counters are open despite the narrow set, and spacing appears even, supporting a continuous, flowing text color.
Best suited to display settings where its delicate strokes and condensed slant can read large: headlines, magazine-style editorial layouts, brand wordmarks, and sophisticated packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or captions when size and contrast are sufficient to preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is refined and airy, with a fashion-forward, contemporary feel. Its slender, slanted forms read as graceful and understated rather than bold or technical, giving text a light, stylish presence.
The font appears designed to deliver a sleek, high-end sans voice with an italicized, calligraphic tempo while staying firmly geometric and uncluttered. Its narrow width and minimal stroke treatment suggest an intention to save space and add elegance without resorting to decorative features.
The design emphasizes verticality: uprights and diagonals dominate, and rounded letters keep a soft, streamlined profile. Numerals follow the same narrow, elegant construction, matching the text’s light texture in running lines.
