A high-contrast italic with sharply tapered terminals and smooth, swept curves. The stroke modulation is pronounced, with thin hairlines and fuller main strokes that create a lively, glossy texture in text. Letterforms are generously proportioned with open counters and a forward-leaning rhythm; joins and arcs feel drawn rather than purely geometric. The numerals follow the same contrast and slant, with elegant curves and narrow hairline transitions that emphasize a dressy, print-oriented finish.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and magazine-style typography where contrast and slant can carry hierarchy and mood. It can also work for premium branding and packaging accents, especially when used at medium-to-large sizes where hairlines and sharp terminals stay clear.
The overall tone is polished and expressive, combining a classic italic elegance with a slightly dramatic, contemporary bite. It reads as confident and stylish—more “feature text” than neutral workhorse—while remaining clean and orderly in spacing and cadence.
The design appears aimed at delivering a sophisticated italic voice with strong stroke contrast and a fast forward motion, providing a polished, editorial character for display-driven applications.
Uppercase forms show strong, sculpted silhouettes with pointed apexes and clean cut-offs, while lowercase features italic single-storey shapes and looped constructions that reinforce a calligraphic feel. In paragraph samples, the alternating thick/thin rhythm becomes a defining texture, rewarding larger sizes and good contrast against the background.
