A highly condensed italic sans with tall proportions and pronounced stroke contrast. Curves are drawn with smooth, rounded-rectangle logic, while joins and terminals stay crisp and clean, keeping the overall silhouette sharp. Counters are tight and vertical stems dominate, producing a fast, upward rhythm; diagonals and curved strokes thin dramatically, especially in letters like V, W, and X. Figures follow the same narrow, high-contrast construction, with slender spines and compact bowls that align well with the uppercase.
Best suited for headlines, magazine covers, pull quotes, posters, and brand marks where a compact footprint and stylish italic voice are useful. It can also work for packaging and advertising where a tall, refined look helps create a premium or contemporary mood.
The font projects a sleek, fashion-forward tone with a sense of speed and refinement. Its dramatic contrast and tightly packed rhythm feel modern and cosmopolitan, leaning toward luxury, nightlife, and high-design editorial styling rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, space-saving display italic that combines modern sans construction with dramatic contrast. Its narrow proportions and smooth, superelliptical curves prioritize visual impact and a distinctive editorial cadence.
In longer lines the strong slant and condensed spacing create an assertive texture that rewards generous tracking and clear hierarchy. The narrow apertures and high contrast make it most convincing at display sizes, where the streamlined forms and elegant curves read as intentional and sophisticated.
