A very heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced high-contrast strokes and a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and many joins flare into pointed terminals that emphasize direction and motion. Counters and apertures are relatively tight for the weight, giving the letters a compact, ink-trap-like density, while curves (notably in C, G, S, and O) show crisp, sculpted modulation. Lowercase forms keep a conventional structure with a moderate x-height, but the strong italic angle and tapered strokes make the set feel lively and angular rather than purely bookish.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, pull quotes, covers, and poster work where its bold contrast and slanted momentum can dominate the page. It can also add a premium, emphatic tone to branding and packaging, especially when used sparingly for titles or key statements rather than long passages.
The font reads as assertive and theatrical, with a classic editorial flavor—more “headline on a magazine spread” than quiet running text. Its sharp wedges and steep italic slant convey speed, emphasis, and a slightly dramatic, vintage-leaning sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver classic serif authority with added motion and spectacle, combining traditional italic construction with exaggerated weight and sharply carved terminals. It prioritizes strong silhouette and punchy emphasis, aiming for high-impact editorial and promotional settings.
The numerals share the same energetic slant and contrast, with bold, stylized shapes that suit display settings. Overall spacing appears geared toward impact at larger sizes, where the pointed terminals and internal cut-ins remain crisp and recognizable.
