A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with sharp angles and a slightly calligraphic stroke flow that gives letters a forward momentum. Counters are relatively compact while capitals feel broad and commanding, producing a strong headline presence. The numerals echo the same contrast and italic construction, with curved forms showing lively stress and firm, sculpted joins.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short passages where the contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It works well for magazine layouts, book covers, cultural posters, and branded editorial graphics that need a classic serif voice with extra dynamism.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a dramatic, editorial confidence. Its energetic slant and high-contrast detailing add a sense of urgency and sophistication, evoking bookish, newspaper, and luxury associations without feeling ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading tradition in a more forceful, slanted display form, combining classic proportions with striking contrast and assertive terminals to stand out in editorial and promotional contexts.
Spacing appears intentionally generous for display use, helping the heavy strokes and sharp serifs stay distinct at larger sizes. The rhythm is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a noticeable emphasis on diagonal stress and pointed finishing strokes.
