This typeface is a high-contrast serif italic with a pronounced rightward slant and a strongly calligraphic, flared-stroke construction. Stems and diagonals swell and taper sharply, producing wedge-like terminals and pointed joins that feel carved rather than bracketed. The letterforms are compact and vertically oriented, with crisp hairlines, narrow apertures, and energetic curves that tighten the rhythm. Numerals follow the same sharp modulation and angular finishing, giving the set a cohesive, display-leaning texture.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where its sharp contrast and italic energy can read as intentional and premium. It fits fashion and culture editorials, striking branding moments, and poster-level typography, and can also work for short passages where a dramatic, refined voice is desired.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, combining classical italic sophistication with a punchy, fashion/editorial edge. Its sharp tapers and incisive terminals create a sense of speed and intensity, while the high contrast keeps the impression polished and upscale.
The design appears intended to evoke an engraved or calligraphic italic tradition while amplifying contrast and tapering for modern display impact. Its flared endings and tight, sculpted forms prioritize character and elegance over neutral long-form readability.
The texture becomes quite dark and lively in running text, with frequent triangular accents at stroke endings and a distinctly sculpted silhouette. The italic motion is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating strong directional flow and a slightly condensed, high-impact color on the page.
