This is an italic slab-serif with sturdy, mostly square-ended serifs and a steady, low-contrast stroke. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a slightly calligraphic rhythm in how curves and joins flow into the serifs. Letterforms are compact and economical, with open counters and clear apertures that keep the texture readable in paragraph settings. The shapes show mild, naturalistic modulation at curves and terminals, giving the slabs a subtly softened, ink-friendly finish rather than a purely geometric cut.
It fits well in editorial and book typography where an italic is needed for emphasis, voice, or annotation while maintaining strong structure. The font’s even color and open forms make it suitable for pull quotes, magazine features, and academic layouts that require clarity at comfortable reading sizes.
The overall tone reads editorial and bookish: confident, traditional, and slightly formal without becoming ornate. Its italic stance adds motion and emphasis, suggesting commentary, citations, and narrative voice rather than loud display. The sturdy slabs contribute a grounded, dependable character suited to serious content.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic that remains solid and authoritative through slab serifs and restrained contrast, prioritizing consistent text color and legibility. It balances a traditional, print-oriented feel with a slightly contemporary crispness in its terminals and spacing.
Capitals feel broad and stable with strong horizontal serifs, while the lowercase maintains a smooth, continuous flow that helps long lines hold together. Numerals follow the same italic slant and sturdy finish, reinforcing a cohesive texture when mixing text and figures.
