A right-leaning slab serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and a pronounced, angular construction. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation, with sharp joins, tapered terminals, and occasional wedge-like cuts that add snap to the silhouettes. Proportions feel compact in the counters but tall in the lowercase, creating a strong vertical rhythm; curves are slightly squared-off and the overall texture reads dense and punchy. Numerals and capitals maintain the same muscular, slabbish presence, emphasizing strong horizontals and crisp edges.
Best suited to headlines and short-form text where its slabbish weight and italic energy can carry a layout—magazine openers, posters, packaging callouts, and branding systems that want a confident, retro-leaning punch. It can also work for subheads or pull quotes when strong emphasis is needed.
The tone is bold and energetic, balancing a classic newspaper/wood-type sturdiness with a modern, fast italic slant. It feels confident and slightly nostalgic, with a display-forward voice that suggests headlines, posters, and emphatic messaging rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful italic slab voice with clear contrast and crisp detailing, optimizing for attention and momentum while retaining traditional serif cues. It aims to combine rugged, print-rooted structure with a lively, contemporary slant for display-driven typography.
The italic angle is consistent and gives the face forward motion, while the heavy serifs and firm stroke endings keep it grounded. The combination of sharp internal corners and robust slabs creates a distinctive, high-impact texture at larger sizes.
