A bold, high-contrast serif italic with sharply tapered, wedge-like serifs and pronounced flare at stroke endings. The letterforms show an oblique, calligraphic construction: curves are full and rounded while joins and terminals snap into crisp points, creating a lively thick–thin rhythm. Counters are generally open, with compact spacing and a strong baseline presence; capitals feel stately and slightly condensed in impression, while lowercase forms carry energetic, sweeping italics and decisive entry/exit strokes.
This style is strongest in display settings such as magazine headlines, book-cover titling, posters, and brand marks where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when paired with a calmer text face for body copy.
The overall tone is editorial and dramatic, combining classic bookish authority with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp terminals and sculpted contrast read as confident and refined, suited to messaging that wants to feel premium, assertive, or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary interpretation of italic serif typography—combining classical proportions with flared, razor-edged detailing to create a striking, high-impact voice for display and editorial use.
The italic slant is consistent across cases, and many glyphs emphasize angular finishing cuts that add sparkle in headlines. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, carved aesthetic, with strong diagonal stress and pointed details that help them match display typography.
