A slanted serif design with pronounced contrast between thick stems and hairline-like connections, giving strokes a crisp, cut-paper sharpness. Serifs feel flared and slightly wedge-like, with bracketed joins that thicken into terminals rather than ending abruptly. Counters are relatively compact and the overall texture is dark and punchy, aided by broad curves in letters like C, G, O, and Q and stout verticals in E, F, and H. Lowercase forms lean calligraphic, with pointed, tapering terminals (notably in a, c, e, s) and a strong, sculpted rhythm across words.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, magazine titles, pull quotes, and bold branding where strong contrast and sharp terminals can read at size. It can also work for short editorial passages or subheads when generous spacing and comfortable sizes preserve its crisp details.
The tone is forceful and formal, mixing traditional serif authority with a lively, forward-leaning motion. Its sharp terminals and high-contrast modulation add drama, making lines feel dynamic and attention-grabbing rather than quiet or purely bookish.
The design appears intended to deliver classic serif credibility with added speed and drama through a consistent slant, high-contrast stroke modulation, and flared terminals. The overall build prioritizes impact and stylistic character over neutrality, aiming to stand out in prominent typographic roles.
Figures appear oldstyle-leaning in feel, with curvier, more text-like proportions than rigid lining numerals, and they share the same tapered terminals and contrast as the letters. The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a cohesive diagonal flow in longer passages.
