A sturdy italic slab-serif with broad proportions and a steady, low-contrast stroke rhythm. The letters lean consistently, with thick, blocky serifs that feel largely square-ended and only lightly bracketed into the stems. Counters are open and generously sized, and the joins stay crisp rather than calligraphic, giving the face a clean, engineered texture. Numerals and capitals share the same bold, grounded footing, producing a dense but readable color across lines.
Well-suited for headlines and subheads where an italic voice is desired without sacrificing weight and presence. It can also work for short editorial passages, pull quotes, and labeling or packaging that benefits from a robust, classic slab-serif character.
The overall tone is assertive and practical, with a vintage editorial flavor. Its italic stance adds motion and emphasis, while the slab structure keeps it anchored and dependable. The result feels confident and slightly nostalgic—energetic without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic slab-serif that reads with authority and momentum—combining strong, square-ended slabs with a clean, low-contrast construction for reliable display and text emphasis.
In text, the wide set and strong serifs create a pronounced horizontal cadence, especially in sequences with E/F/T and the lowercase with prominent feet. The italic angle is moderate and consistent, supporting emphasis in longer passages while maintaining clear letter differentiation.
