A condensed, right-slanted sans with monoline strokes and a clean, open construction. Letterforms are tall and streamlined, with smooth, rounded curves and relatively flat, understated terminals that keep the texture even. Counters stay narrow but readable, and the overall rhythm is consistent, giving lines of text a sleek, continuous flow. Numerals follow the same lean, with simple shapes and a restrained, utilitarian drawing.
It performs best in display and short-to-medium text situations where a narrow, stylish voice is desired—magazine headlines, pull quotes, posters, and brand lockups. The condensed footprint helps fit more characters per line, making it useful for packaging and titling where space is tight but a refined look is needed.
The font conveys a contemporary, fashionable tone—lean, poised, and a bit kinetic. Its slanted stance and slender silhouettes suggest speed and refinement rather than heaviness, lending an upscale, editorial feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, space-saving italic voice with a modern, minimal build. By keeping strokes even and forms simple, it aims for a smooth typographic color and a contemporary, fashion-forward presence in layout-driven work.
The condensed proportions create a dense vertical cadence, while the gentle curvature in letters like C, G, O, and S keeps it from feeling rigid. The lowercase maintains a smooth, uniform color, and the uppercase reads crisp and architectural, making mixed-case settings feel intentional and polished.
