A strongly slanted serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and a forward-driving rhythm. Strokes taper and swell toward ends, giving a chiseled, slightly calligraphic texture rather than crisp bracketed serifs. Counters are fairly compact and the joins feel energetic, with occasional hooky or swept forms (notably in letters like J, Q, f, and y). Numerals and capitals maintain the same angled, display-leaning construction, producing a dense, high-impact silhouette in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, cover lines, and branding where a bold, energetic serif can carry the composition. It can also work for packaging or labels that benefit from a slightly vintage, attention-grabbing italic texture; for longer text, larger sizes and generous leading would help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a theatrical, headline-ready presence. Its angled posture and sharp flares suggest speed and emphasis, evoking a retro advertising or sports-display vibe while still reading as a serifed design.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful, italic display serif with flared terminals—combining traditional serif cues with a more sculpted, speed-oriented gesture for strong emphasis in titles and identity work.
The italic angle is pronounced and consistent, and the letterforms show a mix of sharp points and rounded swelling that creates a lively, textured word shape. Spacing appears tuned for display and short text, where the distinctive terminals and diagonals can read clearly without building too much dark mass.
