A highly condensed, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and a strong vertical rhythm. Strokes are thin and even, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls and smooth, continuous curves that keep counters open despite the tight width. Terminals are clean and understated, and the overall construction feels drawn with steady, precise strokes rather than broad modulation.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short text where a condensed, elegant voice is desired—magazine layouts, fashion or lifestyle branding, posters, and packaging. The thin strokes and compressed width favor larger sizes and high-contrast printing or screen contexts where its delicacy can remain clear.
The tone is sleek and refined, with a light, high-fashion sensibility. Its narrow, slanted silhouette reads energetic and stylish while staying restrained and minimal, giving it a contemporary, editorial feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a sophisticated condensed italic look with minimal ornament, prioritizing a streamlined footprint and a crisp, modern rhythm. Its rounded-rectangle forms and uniform stroke weight suggest an aim for contemporary neutrality with a distinctive, stylish slant.
Capitals are tall and streamlined, and rounded letters like C, G, O, and Q emphasize the softly squared curvature. The numerals match the same condensed, linear logic, supporting a cohesive typographic color in both text and display settings.
