A condensed, right-leaning sans with clean, continuous strokes and gently rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with a smooth, superelliptical feel—ovals and bowls read as softened rectangles rather than perfect circles—while straight stems stay taut and upright in their construction despite the overall slant. The contrast is subtle but present, giving counters and joins a slightly calligraphic rhythm without becoming fussy. Narrow proportions, compact apertures, and tight internal space create a tall, streamlined silhouette across both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where a narrow italic can add energy without taking much horizontal space: magazine headlines, subheads, posters, and brand marks. It also works well for packaging and promotional typography where a sleek, modern voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is fast, refined, and contemporary—more fashion and editorial than utilitarian signage. Its narrow, slanted stance adds momentum and a slightly dramatic, high-design character while remaining restrained and clean.
Likely designed to provide a space-saving, high-impact italic voice with smooth geometric rounding and a polished editorial rhythm. The goal appears to be a modern, streamlined texture that reads quickly and adds motion while staying clean and minimal.
Caps are tall and economical, with minimal ornamentation and consistent terminal treatment. Numerals follow the same condensed, italicized logic, keeping a coherent vertical rhythm that emphasizes speed and sophistication.
