A sharply slanted, high-contrast italic with sculpted strokes and pronounced tapering at terminals. Letterforms show a rhythmic, handwritten-influenced construction: bowls and curves are drawn with smooth, swelling thicks and hairline thins, while verticals and diagonals often end in pointed or wedge-like finishes. Spacing feels slightly lively and uneven in a purposeful way, and several glyphs take on distinctive, display-oriented shapes (notably the looping figures and the angular diagonals), reinforcing an energetic texture in running text.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, pull quotes, posters, and branded typography where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short editorial passages or introductions when a fashionable, expressive voice is desired, but its lively shapes and hairline details are less ideal for dense small-size text.
The overall tone is stylish and theatrical, with a refined, editorial feel. Its crisp contrast and sweeping italic movement suggest sophistication and motion, while the sharpened terminals add a hint of drama and personality.
The design appears intended to blend a sans-based skeleton with calligraphic stroke modulation, delivering an italic that feels refined yet characterful. It prioritizes visual rhythm and distinctive word shapes for attention-grabbing, style-forward typography.
Capitals are particularly dynamic, with varied entry/exit strokes and occasional calligraphic hooks that create strong word shapes. Numerals follow the same contrast and slant, with curvier forms in 6/8/9 and a more angled, gestural 2/7 that reads as expressive rather than strictly utilitarian.
