A bold, right-leaning serif with pronounced contrast and a distinctly calligraphic stress. Stems and joins feel sculpted, with flared, tapered endings and bracketed serifs that broaden into soft wedges rather than crisp slabs. Curves are generous and round, often finishing in teardrop/ball terminals, while counters stay relatively open for the weight. The overall rhythm is energetic and slightly irregular in a purposeful way, with compact apertures on some letters and lively, curling details such as the Q’s tail and the descending forms of j and y.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and short blocks of copy where the high-energy italic texture can shine. It also fits branding, packaging, and editorial applications that want a classic-but-bold voice, and it can work for display typography in sports or entertainment contexts where momentum and punch are desirable.
The tone reads confident and extroverted—classic serif heritage filtered through a punchy, contemporary display attitude. Its dramatic contrast and italic motion create a sense of speed and emphasis, making text feel headline-forward and persuasive rather than quiet or purely bookish.
The design appears intended to deliver an emphatic italic serif for display use, pairing traditional serif cues with flared, calligraphic terminals to create a distinctive, high-impact texture. Its forms prioritize personality and motion, aiming for memorable shapes and strong typographic color in prominent sizes.
Numerals are weighty and highly stylized, echoing the same flared endings and rounded terminals for a cohesive texture alongside letters. In longer text, the strong slant and heavy stroke presence produce a dark, animated color that favors emphasis and impact over neutrality.
