A wide, italic slab-serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and prominent bracketed slabs that read as squared but softly rounded at the joins. The letterforms lean with a consistent rightward slant and maintain generous horizontal proportions, producing a relaxed, readable rhythm. Curves are full and open, with substantial serifs and terminals that stay crisp while avoiding sharp, needle-like details. Overall spacing feels even and text color is solid, giving paragraphs a stable, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to editorial typography where an italic voice needs to remain substantial—such as magazine features, book interiors with emphatic passages, and pull quotes. It also works effectively for headlines and subheads that benefit from a classic, print-forward presence without high-contrast delicacy.
The tone is classic and editorial, combining old-style warmth with a confident, institutional presence. Its italic stance adds energy and forward motion while the heavy slabs keep the voice grounded and reliable. The result feels suited to storytelling and journalism rather than sleek minimalism.
Likely intended as a sturdy italic slab-serif that balances tradition and readability, delivering emphasis and personality while keeping a consistent, dependable texture in text and display settings.
Uppercase forms appear dignified and steady, while the lowercase introduces a softer, more conversational cadence in running text. Numerals match the robust construction and maintain clarity at display sizes, contributing to a cohesive, workmanlike character.
