A slanted serif with crisp, high-contrast strokes and bracketed serifs that taper to sharp terminals. The stress reads diagonally, with clear thick–thin modulation and a slightly calligraphic rhythm. Capitals are broad and confident with open counters, while the lowercase shows compact, energetic joins and gently varied character widths. Details like the angled crossbars and tapered diagonals keep the texture active without feeling ornamental.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, citations, and pull quotes. It can also serve effectively in magazine features and literary titles, especially where a refined, classic tone is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, with an editorial elegance that feels at home in established publishing. Its italic motion and sharp finishing strokes add a sense of momentum and rhetorical emphasis, suggesting sophistication rather than casualness.
The design appears intended to deliver a familiar, readable serif voice in an italic style, balancing traditional bookish forms with brisk contrast and crisp terminals for emphasis and hierarchy.
Numerals echo the same contrast and slant, with clear, readable shapes and distinctive curves (notably in 2, 3, and 9). The “g” and “a” are single-storey forms, reinforcing a more handwritten, humanist flavor within an otherwise conventional serif structure.
