A condensed oblique sans with a clean, streamlined skeleton and gently rounded bowls. Strokes are smooth and even, with minimal contrast and crisp joins that keep counters open despite the narrow set. The italic slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, with narrow proportions, compact sidebearings, and a steady rhythm that emphasizes verticality. Letterforms show simple, contemporary construction—rounds are ovalized, diagonals are taut, and terminals generally finish without decorative shaping.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, posters, and brand wordmarks where a narrow footprint and italic motion help fit more text while adding energy. It can also work for editorial accents, pull quotes, and captions when set with comfortable spacing and sufficient size to preserve the airy texture.
The overall tone feels sleek and contemporary, projecting speed and polish rather than warmth. Its narrow, forward-leaning stance reads efficient and purposeful, suitable for understated sophistication and modern branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, space-saving italic voice that stays clean and neutral while adding momentum through slant and condensed proportions. It aims for legible, contemporary display typography with a polished, editorial-friendly texture.
The uppercase has a tall, upright presence with controlled curves (notably in C/G/O/Q) and sharp diagonal energy in A/V/W/X/Y. Lowercase maintains clear differentiation and legibility at display sizes, with a single-storey “a” and simplified forms that keep the texture even. Numerals follow the same condensed, slanted logic, blending well in running text.
