A right-leaning serif with energetic, calligraphic construction and flared, wedge-like terminals. Strokes show a clear broad-pen logic with swelling curves and tapered entries, plus softly bracketed joins that keep counters open. Capitals are broad and stable with confident curves, while the lowercase is compact and rhythmic, with sturdy bowls and a single-storey a and g. Numerals are heavy and rounded, with angled finishing strokes that echo the serif treatment.
Best suited to display settings where its slanted momentum and flared serif detail can be seen—such as magazine headlines, event posters, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for short editorial subheads and pull quotes when you want a classic serif voice with extra drive and impact.
The overall tone is lively and emphatic, balancing traditional serif cues with a forward-leaning sense of motion. It reads as confident and punchy, with a slightly sporty, headline-first attitude rather than a quiet book texture.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, attention-grabbing serif that nods to traditional calligraphy while staying modern and energetic. Its flared terminals and rounded, weighty shapes suggest an intention to maximize presence and readability in large-format and promotional typography.
Round letters (O, C, G, Q) are generously proportioned and maintain smooth curvature, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) carry crisp, tapered endings that heighten the sense of speed. The italic slant is consistent across cases, and the flared finishing strokes create a distinctive silhouette at large sizes.
