A condensed, steeply slanted slab-serif with long vertical proportions and a crisp, unbracketed serif treatment. Strokes are mostly monolinear with restrained modulation, and terminals finish in squared, slab-like feet and caps that read cleanly even at narrow widths. The overall rhythm is vertical and tightly spaced, with tall ascenders/descenders and compact counters that emphasize a sleek, elongated silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and magazine-style layouts where a tall, condensed italic can create strong vertical emphasis. It can also work for branding and packaging that benefits from a sleek, fashion-forward voice, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The typeface projects a sharp, editorial sophistication with a retro display flavor. Its narrow, towering forms and crisp slab endings feel stylish and slightly theatrical, lending an assertive, attention-grabbing tone without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a slim, high-impact italic slab-serif for display typography, balancing crisp slab terminals with a streamlined, modernized structure. Its proportions prioritize verticality and presence, aiming for punchy readability and a distinctive editorial signature in short-to-medium text settings.
Uppercase forms appear particularly elongated, while the lowercase maintains a similarly tall profile with minimal roundness and an upright, streamlined structure. Numerals follow the same condensed logic, keeping consistent weight and a disciplined, vertical cadence across lines of text.
