A high-contrast italic with tapered strokes and sharply defined joins, showing a pronounced diagonal stress throughout. Curves are smooth and open, while terminals often finish in pointed, wedge-like cuts that keep the outlines crisp at display sizes. Proportions feel traditional and slightly narrow in places, with capital forms reading stately and lowercase forms showing lively modulation; the overall rhythm alternates between stout stems and hairline connections for a clean, energetic texture. Numerals follow the same contrast and italic slant, with curving forms and thin entry/exit strokes that reinforce a refined, print-like presence.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and titling where the contrast and italic motion can be appreciated. It can also work for short-to-medium editorial passages at comfortable sizes where hairlines remain clear, lending a classic, cultured voice to magazines, books, and brand storytelling.
The tone is polished and literary, with an editorial sophistication that suggests formal writing, culture, and craft. Its energetic slant and sharp tapering add a sense of motion and decisiveness, making it feel expressive without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, text-forward italic voice with strong contrast and disciplined slant, balancing readability with expressive calligraphic energy for editorial and display typography.
In continuous text the strong contrast creates a sparkling page color, with hairlines and thin links contributing to a light, airy cadence. The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the pointed terminals give the design a precise, slightly dramatic finish.
