A right-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Strokes show a calligraphic, slightly swashed construction: terminals are sharp and angled, curves are full, and joins are compact, creating a tightly knit rhythm in words. Uppercase forms are wide and energetic with strong diagonals, while the lowercase combines sturdy bowls with lively entry/exit strokes and a clearly slanted axis. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curved forms and angled finishing strokes that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display settings where its contrast and slanted momentum can be appreciated—magazine headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and brand wordmarks. It can work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes, but the dense, high-contrast texture suggests avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with a dramatic, energetic slant that reads as editorial and slightly vintage. Its bold presence and sharp detailing give it a punchy, headline-forward feel while still retaining the manners of a conventional serif.
The design appears intended to modernize a classic text-serif model with an emphatic italic stance and heightened contrast, delivering a dramatic, attention-getting voice while maintaining recognizable serif conventions.
The texture in continuous text is dark and rhythmic, with noticeable sparkle from the sharp serifs and strong contrast. Letterforms like the ampersand and several lowercase terminals show a decorative, calligraphy-informed flair that adds personality without pushing into script territory.
