A condensed, high-contrast text face with a predominantly sans construction that frequently ends strokes in subtle flares rather than full serifs. Vertical stems are strong and straight while joins and terminals show tapered, calligraphic modulation, creating sharp thick–thin rhythm throughout. Counters are relatively compact and the overall fit is tight, with a tall, elegant silhouette in both capitals and lowercase. Lowercase forms keep a classic bookish structure (double-storey a and g), and the numerals follow the same chiselled contrast with narrow set widths.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and titling where its contrast and narrow proportions can add elegance and intensity. It also works well for magazine and cultural layouts, premium packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a refined, sculptural voice. For extended reading sizes, it will favor generous leading and careful spacing to preserve clarity.
The font reads as polished and editorial, balancing modern restraint with a hint of classical display drama. Its crisp contrast and narrow stance lend a formal, upscale tone suited to fashion, culture, and premium branding contexts without feeling overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, condensed look with pronounced stroke modulation—combining sans-like simplicity with flared, calligraphic finishing for a distinctive editorial signature.
Distinctive details include teardrop-like and wedge terminals, a sharp-shouldered r, and a compact t with a small crossbar, all contributing to a carved, slightly Art Deco-leaning flavor. The sample text shows strong word-shape and a steady vertical rhythm, though the contrast and tight proportions make it feel more striking than neutral in longer passages.
