This typeface is sharply condensed with a pronounced vertical emphasis and strong thick–thin modulation. Strokes switch between hairline connections and weighty stems, producing crisp, high-contrast silhouettes and a refined rhythm in text. Terminals are clean and mostly unbracketed, with restrained curvature; round letters read as tall, tightened ovals with smooth, controlled contours. Counters are compact, spacing is tight, and the overall color is lively due to the repeated alternation of dense verticals and fine hairlines.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and display typography where its condensed proportions and contrast can read cleanly. It fits magazine layouts, fashion/beauty branding, posters, and sophisticated packaging, and can add a refined, dramatic accent to pull quotes or short bursts of text.
The tone is elegant and image-conscious, combining modern minimalism with a slightly theatrical contrast. It feels premium and editorial, suggesting sophistication and a curated, design-forward voice rather than everyday neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, space-saving display voice with elevated contrast and a tailored, contemporary finish. Its narrow set and crisp detailing prioritize impact and elegance in larger settings while maintaining a controlled, consistent structure across the alphabet.
The design favors vertical strokes, making letters like M, N, U, and W feel especially architectural, while S, G, and 2/3 add a more calligraphic snap through their contrasting curves. In running text the condensed fit and hairlines create a brisk pace and a distinctive, high-fashion texture, especially at larger sizes.
