Author's note

Violette01 by Benoit Sjoholm is a free condensed sans serif with tall, slender letters and an elegant, understated air. Fine strokes and gently rounded curves give the lettering a graceful silhouette and a calm, controlled rhythm.

Fashion branding and contemporary publishing both suit its elongated construction, which feels refined without relying on ornament. It also belongs on fragrance packaging and cultural event posters. The font is most convincing when its narrow lettering becomes the defining feature of a clean editorial cover.
