A condensed, right-slanted display sans with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Strokes show an italic calligraphic stress, with thin hairlines in joins and entry strokes contrasting against heavy verticals and diagonals. Counters are compact and rounded, and the overall rhythm is tight and vertical, producing a tall silhouette with energetic, blade-like detailing. Numerals and capitals maintain the same compressed proportions and contrast, giving the set a unified, high-impact texture.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and branding where a compact footprint and strong contrast are assets. It can add punch to fashion and entertainment posters, product marks, and short editorial subheads; for longer passages, it benefits from larger sizes and generous spacing.
The typeface reads as assertive and stylish, with a runway/editorial attitude and a slightly theatrical edge. Its narrow, slanted forms and sharp finishing points convey speed, confidence, and a premium, contemporary tone.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in a narrow measure, combining a sans foundation with italic, calligraphic contrast for a fashionable display voice. The goal appears to be a sleek, space-saving typeface that still feels expressive and premium in titles and branding.
The condensed width and strong modulation create striking word shapes, but also make spacing and interior counters feel tight; it performs best when given room in tracking and line spacing. The italic slant is consistent across cases, helping mixed-case settings feel cohesive and intentionally dynamic.
