A slanted slab-serif with sturdy, blocky serifs and mostly flat terminals that read as firm and mechanical. Strokes stay fairly even throughout with minimal modulation, while gentle bracketing at the serif joins softens the otherwise squared-off construction. The proportions feel compact and slightly condensed in the rounds, with a consistent, steady rhythm across the alphabet. The italic is more of an oblique lean than a calligraphic script, keeping counters open and letterforms clear at text sizes.
Works well for editorial typography such as magazines, reviews, essays, and book interiors where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, citations, or pull quotes. It also suits headlines and subheads that benefit from a sturdy, traditional slab-serif presence, and can support branding that aims for reliability with a vintage print flavor.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, suggesting printed tradition while still feeling pragmatic and direct. Its italic slant adds motion and emphasis without becoming decorative, giving it a confident, slightly old-style “bookish” voice suited to serious but approachable messaging.
Likely designed to provide a dependable italic companion with slab-serif authority—prioritizing legibility and consistent texture while adding a clear, energetic slant for emphasis in text and display settings.
The numerals and capitals carry the same stout slab treatment, reinforcing a cohesive, print-forward texture. The shapes emphasize clarity and stability, producing a strong horizontal baseline and a solid typographic color in paragraphs.
