A sharply slanted, high-contrast roman with smooth, round construction and clean, unbracketed terminals. Strokes move between very fine hairlines and firmer downstrokes, creating a crisp, shimmering texture in text. Curves are taut and elliptical, counters stay open, and the overall spacing feels generous, giving the letterforms a light, airy rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrast and slant, with italic-style figures that read as streamlined and graceful.
Well suited to editorial typography where a refined italic voice is desirable—magazine features, pull quotes, and display lines. It can also support upscale branding and packaging, and works nicely for invitations or event materials where a crisp, elegant slant adds emphasis. It is best used at sizes that preserve the fine hairlines and contrast.
The tone is polished and fashion-forward, with a poised, cultivated feel. Its strong slant and delicate hairlines suggest sophistication and speed rather than neutrality, lending a distinctly editorial voice.
Likely intended as a contemporary, elegant italic for display and emphasis, combining smooth, rounded construction with pronounced contrast to produce a luxurious, editorial texture.
Uppercase forms are narrow and elegantly arced, while lowercase shapes emphasize flowing joins and smooth bowls. The design relies on clean geometry and contrast rather than ornament, so its personality comes primarily from the italic angle and the refined stroke modulation.
