This typeface is a sharply angled italic serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a lively, calligraphic stress. Serifs are bracketed yet crisp, and many joins taper into pointed terminals that create a sleek, blade-like silhouette. The caps are sturdy and slightly condensed in feel, while the lowercase shows energetic entry/exit strokes, a single-storey italic “a,” and a descending “f” with a long, sweeping tail. Numerals follow the same slanted, high-contrast logic, with compact forms and strong diagonal emphasis that keeps the texture brisk and directional.
It suits editorial headlines, magazine features, book and album covers, and brand wordmarks that want a traditional serif voice with heightened energy. It can work for short to medium passages when set with generous leading and careful tracking, especially where an emphatic italic texture is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and assertive, combining classical bookish cues with a more dramatic, display-minded italic flair. Its sharp terminals and sweeping curves add a sense of motion and sophistication, making text feel purposeful and slightly theatrical rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with a more expressive italic character—prioritizing contrast, motion, and crisp detailing to create a strong, premium presence in display and editorial settings.
Counters are relatively tight and strokes are firm, producing a dark, punchy color that reads best when given breathing room. Several letters include subtle swash-like extensions (notably in descenders and the “Q” tail), which enriches the rhythm but can increase visual density in long lines.
