A slanted serif with a distinctive angular construction: many curves are faceted into chamfered corners, giving rounds like C, G, O, and 0 an octagonal feel. Strokes show moderate contrast with sharpened, wedge-like terminals and compact bracketed serifs, producing a crisp, energetic texture. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places with varied letter widths, and the lowercase forms keep a steady x-height while leaning forward with a consistent italic rhythm.
This face is well suited to headlines and short blocks of text where its angular rounds and italic drive can be appreciated. It can add character to branding and logotypes, and works well for posters, packaging, and themed editorial callouts that benefit from a collegiate or vintage-leaning serif.
The overall tone is confident and old-school, blending collegiate signage energy with a slightly formal, editorial flavor. Its faceted geometry reads as sporty and emblematic rather than delicate, while the italic slant adds motion and urgency.
The design appears intended to merge a traditional italic serif framework with a decorative, chamfered geometry, creating a forward-leaning style that feels both classic and emblematic. The consistent faceting across the character set suggests an aim for strong visual identity and repeatable texture in display use.
The faceting is used consistently across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive “cut” aesthetic that remains readable in text. Numerals follow the same angular rounding and feel sturdy and display-friendly.
