A high-contrast italic with a clean, streamlined construction and smooth, elliptical curves. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with tapered terminals and a consistent rightward slant. Counters are open and rounded, while joins stay crisp, giving the alphabet a lively rhythm without feeling overly ornate. The overall proportions read balanced, with steady cap height and a moderate x-height, and the numerals follow the same angled, contrasty logic for a cohesive texture in text.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where contrast and italic motion can be appreciated. It can add a refined, upscale voice to branding, packaging, and campaign work, and works effectively for short editorial passages at comfortable sizes where the strong modulation remains clear.
The font conveys a polished, fashion-forward tone—sleek and confident with a touch of classic sophistication. Its energetic slant and sharp contrast feel expressive and premium, suited to messaging that wants to sound composed but not rigid.
Likely intended as a contemporary, high-contrast italic for display-led typography that aims to feel premium and dynamic. The design balances expressive calligraphic influence with a restrained, clean finish to stay adaptable across editorial and brand contexts.
In running text the italic angle and contrast create a strong diagonal flow, producing a dark, editorial color at larger sizes. The italic forms remain relatively clean and uncluttered, avoiding excessive swashes, which helps keep the style versatile while still distinctly expressive.
