A sharply slanted italic with pronounced stroke contrast and a broad, expansive stance. Thick strokes read as smooth, dark wedges while hairlines taper to fine points, creating a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Terminals are clean and often angled, with subtly flared joins and sweeping curves that keep counters open despite the dramatic thinning. The overall texture is bold and glossy in display sizes, with a consistent forward momentum across letters and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, fashion/editorial layouts, and branding where high contrast and italic motion are desirable. It performs especially well in short to medium display text such as cover lines, pull quotes, and title treatments, where its sharp hairlines and wide forms can be appreciated without crowding.
The font conveys a polished, high-style tone—confident, dramatic, and slightly theatrical. Its steep slant and razor-thin hairlines suggest speed and sophistication, giving text an upscale editorial energy rather than an everyday utilitarian feel.
Likely designed as a statement italic for display typography, combining a contemporary, streamlined construction with classic high-contrast calligraphic cues. The goal appears to be impactful, stylish reading at larger sizes with a strong sense of motion and refinement.
Uppercase forms feel broad and emphatic, while the lowercase maintains a readable, classic italic flow with strong entry/exit strokes and conspicuous contrast. Numerals follow the same angled logic, with curved figures showing elegant thinning at the turns and sturdier main strokes for presence.
