A tall, condensed italic with a smooth, continuous stroke and gently tapered terminals. Curves are clean and elongated, with narrow counters and a consistent rightward slant that creates a fast, flowing rhythm. The contrast is noticeable but restrained, keeping stems slender while maintaining crisp joins and clear inner shapes. Overall spacing is compact and vertical, giving lines a tight, column-like texture without looking brittle.
Best suited to display and short text where its condensed italic rhythm can shine—headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and titling in magazines or web editorials. It also works well for branding and packaging that benefits from a sleek, upscale voice, especially where space is limited and a narrow footprint is desirable.
The tone is poised and stylish, leaning toward an editorial sophistication rather than casual handwriting. Its narrow, sweeping forms feel fashion-forward and refined, with a sense of speed and elegance that suits premium or polished contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant italic voice with a compact, vertical presence—combining modern smoothness with a subtly calligraphic cadence. It prioritizes stylish texture and a streamlined silhouette for high-impact typography.
The figure set follows the same narrow, angled construction, with rounded forms kept tight and vertical. Uppercase shapes read cleanly at display sizes and maintain a consistent slant with the lowercase, producing an even, cohesive typographic color in text samples.
