This typeface is a sturdy italic serif with strongly tapered stems that broaden into flared, wedge-like terminals. Strokes show a gently calligraphic modulation and pronounced shearing, creating a forward-leaning rhythm and energetic texture. Serifs are compact and bracketed rather than slabby, with crisp, angled endings that stay sharp at display sizes. Counters are generally open and the forms feel robust and slightly compressed in the joints, giving letters a purposeful, punchy silhouette.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short blocks of display copy where the italic energy and flared endings can be appreciated. It can work well for branding and packaging that needs a bold, editorial voice, and for magazine-style layouts where a dynamic serif can add motion and emphasis.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, mixing traditional serif cues with a sporty, contemporary slant. It reads as confident and a bit dramatic—well-suited to messaging that wants momentum and authority without feeling ornate or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver an impactful italic serif with a modern, athletic edge—using flared terminals and tapered stems to amplify speed and presence while keeping familiar serif structure for readability.
The uppercase set appears particularly stable and poster-ready, while the lowercase keeps the motion through angled terminals and lively joins. Numerals match the same italicized, flared finishing, maintaining a consistent color across mixed content. The sample text shows strong word shapes and a dense, high-impact typographic color that favors larger sizes.
