A tall, condensed display face with extreme thick–thin modulation and needle-like hairlines. Strokes are largely vertical with a disciplined rhythm, while curves and joins show a hand-drawn, calligraphic influence. Terminals tend to taper to sharp points or small, rounded flicks, and counters are narrow and elongated, reinforcing the verticality. Numerals and lowercase follow the same delicate, elongated construction, producing a refined but fragile-looking texture at small sizes.
Best suited for large-scale typography such as fashion/editorial headlines, boutique branding, logotypes, posters, and premium packaging where its hairline contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling, especially when paired with a sturdier companion for body text.
The overall tone is poised and dramatic—more runway and magazine masthead than utilitarian text. Its thin hairlines and elongated forms add a sense of sophistication and glamour, while the slightly idiosyncratic, drawn terminals keep it from feeling purely formal or mechanical.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver an elegant, high-fashion display voice by combining condensed proportions with dramatic contrast and hand-influenced detailing. The goal seems to be maximum visual impact with minimal stroke weight, emphasizing refinement and vertical sophistication.
The design relies on generous vertical emphasis and hairline details, so it benefits from ample size and comfortable tracking. In dense settings, the finest strokes and tight counters can visually recede, while at display sizes the sculpted curves and sharp tapers become the main character.
