A condensed, right-leaning display face with striking thick–thin modulation and sharp, clean terminals. The forms are tall and compact with tight interior spaces, creating an emphatic vertical rhythm. Curves are drawn with a refined, almost calligraphic tension—thin hairlines sweep into heavier strokes—while counters stay relatively narrow and oval. The overall texture is lively and uneven in a deliberate way, with some letters showing stronger weight concentration, reinforcing a dynamic, high-fashion cadence.
Best suited to short, prominent settings such as magazine headings, fashion/editorial layouts, posters, and brand-led display typography. It can work for pull quotes or large subheads where its contrast and slant can be showcased, but it is likely to be most comfortable at display sizes where the hairlines remain clearly visible.
The font reads stylish and assertive, with a theatrical contrast that feels editorial and luxe. Its slanted stance and razor-thin hairlines give it a fast, glamorous tone suited to attention-grabbing headlines rather than quiet, utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast, slanted display voice that feels refined and attention-forward. Its condensed build and dramatic modulation suggest an emphasis on impact and sophistication in headline-centric typography.
In running text, the intense contrast and condensed proportions produce a rhythmic, stripe-like color on the line, especially where thin joins meet heavy verticals. Numerals follow the same sculpted contrast, and diagonals (such as in V/W/X) appear especially sharp and graphic, helping the face punch through at larger sizes.
