A tall, tightly set italic sans with an extremely slender, monoline stroke and compact sidebearings. Letterforms are drawn from softly rounded, superellipse-like geometry: ovals and bowls feel smoothly tensioned rather than purely circular, while straight strokes stay clean and linear. The slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a fast diagonal rhythm. Terminals are crisp and unadorned, counters are narrow but open, and overall spacing favors a streamlined, vertical silhouette.
Best suited to display settings where elegance and verticality are an advantage—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and refined packaging. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing to preserve clarity.
The font conveys a refined, high-fashion kind of modernity—light on its feet, understated, and precise. Its narrow, forward-leaning posture reads energetic and stylish, with an editorial tone that feels contemporary rather than retro.
This design appears aimed at delivering a lightweight, condensed italic voice that feels sophisticated and contemporary, pairing minimalist strokes with rounded-rectangle structure for a smooth, controlled look.
The sample text shows strong line-to-line continuity: the consistent slant and tight width create a cohesive texture, while the rounded bowls keep the feel soft and polished despite the extreme thinness. Numerals follow the same tall, condensed logic, helping mixed text maintain a uniform cadence.
