A slanted slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and a low-contrast stroke model that keeps color even across text. The letterforms show slightly condensed proportions and a crisp, print-like finish, with terminals that feel squared-off and decisive. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are moderately open, and the overall rhythm is steady and legible, giving paragraphs a firm, consistent texture.
Well suited to editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, or subheads, and it also scales comfortably into bold, attention-grabbing headlines. The sturdy serifs and even stroke color make it a good fit for book interiors, magazine layouts, and traditional branding that wants a dependable, print-forward feel.
The tone reads traditional and literary, with an editorial seriousness that recalls textbooks, newspapers, and long-form reading. Its italic slant adds a subtle sense of motion and emphasis while keeping a measured, authoritative voice.
The design appears intended as a practical italic slab-serif that balances emphasis with readability, providing a strong typographic presence without high-contrast delicacy. Its forms suggest a goal of delivering a classic, editorial character that remains robust and consistent across sizes.
In the samples, capitals carry pronounced slabs that help anchor headlines, while the lowercase maintains a pragmatic, workmanlike structure. Numerals are clear and sturdy, matching the same blunt, print-oriented detailing for cohesive use in text and display settings.
