A forward-leaning slab serif with sturdy, square-ended serifs and a firm, compact rhythm. Strokes stay fairly even, with gentle rounding in bowls and clear, blunt terminals that keep the texture dense and graphic. Uppercase forms feel broad and steady, while the lowercase shows a lively italic construction with single-storey shapes where expected and tightly controlled counters. Numerals match the assertive tone with solid, straightforward forms and consistent alignment with the letter texture.
Works well for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and poster typography where a strong italic emphasis is desirable. It also suits branding systems that want a punchy, energetic serif with a contemporary, squared finish, and can carry short editorial passages where a bold, even texture is preferred.
The overall tone is energetic and purposeful—more assertive than delicate—combining a classic italic voice with a bold, utilitarian slab presence. It reads as sporty and editorial at once, suggesting emphasis, motion, and headline-driven clarity rather than quiet, bookish refinement.
Likely designed to deliver an italic slab serif that feels forceful and modern, prioritizing a uniform, high-impact texture and clear silhouette over delicate contrast or calligraphic nuance. The square slabs and steady stroke behavior aim to keep the design crisp and legible while projecting motion and emphasis.
The italic angle and slab weight create a strong left-to-right flow, and the chunky serifs help hold shapes together at larger sizes. The set maintains a consistent, slightly condensed feel in the joins and apertures, producing a dark, even typographic color in paragraphs.
