A high-contrast italic serif with strong diagonal stress and crisp, tapered terminals. Strokes move from hairline-thin connections to weighty verticals, with flared, wedge-like finishing that reads as sharp and sculpted. The overall rhythm is dynamic and forward-leaning, with compact curves, pronounced joins, and a distinctly chiseled silhouette that stays coherent across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Well-suited to headlines, magazine features, and branding where an assertive, refined italic voice is needed. It can work effectively for short passages such as pull quotes, subheads, and packaging copy, especially at sizes where the thin hairlines and sharp terminals remain clear.
This face projects a confident, editorial tone with a hint of classic literary elegance. The lively slant and sharp, calligraphic stress add energy and drama, making it feel expressive and slightly theatrical rather than purely neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver strong typographic emphasis through contrast, slant, and sharp finishing, combining traditional serif cues with a more forceful, display-oriented presence. It prioritizes a striking texture and elegant motion over quiet neutrality.
The capitals have a formal, stately stance with narrow hairlines and prominent weighted strokes, while the lowercase shows a compact, energetic flow with sharp, angled entry and exit strokes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, italicized logic, reinforcing a cohesive, dramatic overall color.
