A tightly condensed, right-leaning display sans with extreme vertical emphasis and pronounced contrast between thick main strokes and hairline joins. Counters are narrow and apertures are pinched, producing a taut, streamlined texture. Curves are compact and controlled, while diagonals and terminals often resolve into crisp, needle-like points; several forms feature hairline cuts or spurs that read as intentional blade-like details. Spacing is compact and rhythmic, yielding a dark, fast-moving line in text settings.
Best suited to display typography where its condensed proportions and hairline accents can be appreciated—magazine covers, fashion or nightlife posters, brand wordmarks, and punchy editorial headlines. It can also work for short subheads or labels when set with generous tracking and enough size to preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is cinematic and high-drama, with a sleek, high-fashion attitude. Its razor-thin details and steep slant suggest speed, intensity, and a slightly provocative, editorial sensibility that feels at home in headline-driven design.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while projecting a refined, modern edge. Its high-contrast construction and blade-like details aim to create a memorable silhouette and a sense of motion for contemporary display applications.
Uppercase forms are tall and assertive, with narrow bowls and compact curves that keep silhouettes clean under tight widths. Numerals follow the same compressed, vertical logic for consistent color in mixed settings. The hairline accents are visually striking and may become a defining texture at larger sizes.
