A sharply slanted serif with compact proportions and a lively, calligraphic stress. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with narrow joins and tapered terminals that keep counters open despite the weight. Serifs are brisk and bracketed, often forming wedge-like feet and pointed head serifs that accent the forward motion. Curves are tight and slightly squared at transitions, and the rhythm reads as energetic rather than smooth or geometric.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where the strong italic angle and high-contrast construction can carry voice. It can also work for branding and packaging that want a classic, authoritative feel, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the crisp serifs and modulation remain clear.
The overall tone feels traditional and editorial, with a confident, slightly dramatic presence. Its italic energy and crisp finishing give it a persuasive voice that can feel both refined and forceful, leaning toward classic publishing and display-led typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened motion and emphasis, using a strong italic stance and high contrast to create impact. It aims for a balance of classic text-serif conventions with display-level presence and immediacy.
The uppercase maintains a sturdy, upright structure even with the strong slant, while the lowercase shows more pronounced entry/exit shaping and tighter internal spacing. Numerals appear sturdy and compact, matching the text weight and maintaining the same high-contrast, brisk detailing.
