A very heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. The serifs are bracketed and wedge-like, with a distinctly calligraphic, sheared construction that creates strong directional flow. Counters are relatively compact and the joins are crisp, giving the forms a dense, energetic texture in text. Numerals and capitals keep the same bold, high-contrast logic, with lively curves and occasional swash-like strokes (notably in the Q and some lowercase forms).
Best suited to display sizes where its high contrast and steep italic rhythm can be appreciated—headlines, pull quotes, posters, and bold editorial typography. Its strong personality also fits branding and packaging that want a classic serif voice with added momentum, and it can work for sports or event-led identities that benefit from a dynamic slant.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, combining classic serif authority with an energetic italic slant. It reads as bold, attention-grabbing, and slightly vintage, with a sense of motion that feels promotional and headline-driven rather than quiet or bookish.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with an amplified, energetic italic treatment—maximizing impact through weight, contrast, and brisk forward motion. It aims to be readable at headline scale while still feeling expressive and distinctive.
The weight and contrast create strong word shapes, while the steep italic angle and compact internal space can make long passages feel dark and intense. The lowercase shows more expressive, calligraphy-influenced detailing than the capitals, which helps add personality in display settings.
