A condensed, strongly right-slanted sans with monoline strokes and rounded terminals. The letterforms are tall and streamlined, with narrow counters and a consistent vertical rhythm that reads like a drawn, pen-like skeleton rather than a broad text face. Curves are smooth and superelliptical in feel, while joins stay clean and minimal; diagonals and verticals dominate, giving the set a taut, elongated texture. Numerals and capitals follow the same narrow, upright structure, maintaining an even, airy color despite the extreme proportions.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display settings where its compressed width and forward slant can create momentum. It works well in fashion, lifestyle, and contemporary branding applications, and can add a sleek, architectural voice to posters and packaging when set with generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone is refined and contemporary, with a light, couture sensibility. Its narrow, italic stance adds motion and a slightly dramatic, editorial flair while staying controlled and minimalist.
The font appears designed to deliver a highly compact, elegant italic voice for display typography—prioritizing a clean, modern silhouette and a distinctive vertical rhythm over neutral text readability.
The design relies on height and slant for character more than stroke modulation, so spacing and line length will strongly influence legibility. In the samples, the face produces a distinctive vertical “whisper” texture that feels intentional and stylish rather than purely utilitarian.
