A slanted serif design with sturdy, tapered strokes and clearly bracketed wedge-like serifs. The rhythm is energetic, with noticeable entry and exit flicks that create forward motion across words. Counters are moderately open and the curves are smoothly tensioned, while terminals often finish in sharp, angled points. Capitals feel compact and sculpted, and the overall texture reads dark and continuous in paragraphs without looking overly condensed.
Well-suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other editorial settings where an expressive serif italic is desirable. It can also support branding and packaging that aims for a heritage or premium tone, especially when set at medium-to-large sizes. For longer passages, it works best when you want a dark, animated texture rather than a quiet, neutral read.
The tone is classic and formal with a sporty, assertive edge. Its italic drive and sharp terminals add a sense of motion and flourish, giving text a more expressive, editorial feel than a neutral book face. The impression is polished and traditional, suitable for communication that wants authority without stiffness.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional serif voice with heightened motion and emphasis, pairing a conventional serif structure with energetic italic calligraphic cues. It prioritizes strong presence and recognizable word shapes, aiming for impactful typography in display and editorial contexts.
Numerals are similarly slanted and sturdy, with angular cuts that match the letterforms’ pointed terminals. The lowercase shows pronounced stroke joins and lively diagonals, contributing to a strong word shape and an unmistakably italic cadence.
