A slanted serif design with crisp, blocky slab terminals that meet stems cleanly and squarely. Strokes are relatively even in weight, with a measured, steady rhythm and open counters that keep the texture airy. Proportions lean broad, with generous letter widths and extended horizontals, while capitals feel stately and lowercases maintain a straightforward, readable build. The numerals follow the same understated structure, with clear forms and consistent slab finishing.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book jackets, and long-form headings where a refined italic voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for pull quotes and short display lines that benefit from a broad, open texture and crisp slab finishing.
The overall tone is literary and editorial, combining a classic page-like familiarity with a composed, contemporary crispness. Its italic slant adds motion and emphasis without becoming flamboyant, giving it a poised, cultivated voice suited to narrative and commentary.
Likely intended as a readable italic companion with strong, square-ended serifs that preserve clarity and authority while adding gentle emphasis. The design balances classic text conventions with a wider stance to create an elegant, composed presence in both display and running settings.
The face reads cleanly in continuous text, with a smooth diagonal flow and clear word shapes. Slab serifs stay prominent at smaller sizes, helping maintain structure and alignment, while the wide set produces a relaxed, unhurried color on the page.
