A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Strokes feel brush- or pen-driven, with angled entry/exit cuts and occasional teardrop-like ends that add a subtly calligraphic rhythm. Uppercase forms are compact and sculpted, while the lowercase shows more movement through soft joins and lively curves; counters remain fairly open despite the heavy contrast. Numerals echo the same high-contrast, italic construction, with elegant curves and pointed finishing strokes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine spreads, and brand identities where an elegant, high-impact italic voice is desired. It works especially well for short to medium lines—titles, pull quotes, packaging, and event collateral—where the crisp contrast and sculpted forms can read as intentional and premium.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, balancing classic sophistication with a fashion-forward flair. Its energetic slant and high contrast create a sense of motion and glamour, making text feel expressive and curated rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif foundation with a distinctly expressive italic character, emphasizing contrast, motion, and refined detail for editorial and branding contexts. It prioritizes visual drama and elegance, giving typography a fashionable, high-end presence.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and brisk diagonals create a distinctive texture at display sizes, while the more delicate hairlines and sharp terminals become visually prominent as size decreases. The design leans on elegant silhouette and rhythm over neutrality, with noticeable swash-like shaping in several letters that adds personality.
