A slanted serif with gently flared stroke endings and subtle, bracketed serif behavior that reads as calligraphic rather than mechanical. Strokes stay mostly even, with modest modulation and smooth transitions into terminals. The letterforms are broadly proportioned with open counters and a steady rhythm; curves are round and unforced, while joins and diagonals feel softly tapered. Numerals and capitals keep the same calm, slightly swept construction, giving the set a cohesive, text-forward texture.
Well suited to magazine typography, book interiors, and essay-like longform where an italic voice is needed without sacrificing clarity. It also works effectively for elegant headlines, pull quotes, and brand or packaging copy that benefits from a refined, slightly calligraphic serif character.
The overall tone is polished and literary, balancing traditional serif cues with a relaxed italic flow. It feels cultured and editorial—confident without being loud—suited to sophisticated typography where warmth and readability matter as much as style.
The design appears intended to provide an italic serif with a traditional foundation and a contemporary smoothness, using flared endings and open shapes to keep text readable and expressive. It aims for an editorial, premium feel while maintaining an approachable, humanist rhythm.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the spacing feels generous enough to keep the texture airy in paragraphs. Terminals frequently finish with a mild flare, lending a handmade sheen that softens the silhouette and keeps the shapes from feeling rigid.
