A high-contrast italic serif with thin hairlines and weighty, tapered main strokes that create a crisp, polished texture. Serifs are narrow and pointed, with a distinctly calligraphic stress and energetic entry/exit terminals that sharpen the rhythm. Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly condensed in presence, while the lowercase shows lively modulation, a single-storey italic “a,” and flowing joins that keep words moving forward. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, with elegant curves and fine finishing details that read cleanly at display sizes.
Well suited for headlines and subheads in editorial design, magazine layouts, and book-cover typography where an elegant italic is needed for emphasis. It also works effectively for pull quotes, section openers, and branding applications that benefit from high-contrast refinement rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The overall tone is sophisticated and editorial, balancing traditional bookish manners with a more dramatic, fashion-forward sheen. Its strong diagonal motion and sharp detailing give it a confident, high-end voice suited to expressive typography.
Designed to provide a classic italic voice with heightened contrast and sharp finishing, offering clear hierarchy and emphasis in sophisticated typography. The intent appears to be an elegant, conventional serif italic optimized for expressive setting in editorial and display contexts.
Spacing appears comfortable in text, but the very fine hairlines and pointed terminals make it most convincing when printed or rendered at sizes where the contrast can breathe. The italic angle is pronounced enough to add momentum without becoming flamboyant, maintaining a composed, conventional serif character.
