A slanted serif with sturdy, slightly condensed proportions and pronounced, bracketed serifs. Strokes show a calligraphic, right-leaning motion with gently modulated thickness and softened terminals, producing a dark, even typographic color. Curves are rounded and slightly bulbous, counters stay fairly open, and joins often feel smoothed rather than sharp. The italic structure reads clearly in both cases, with lively entry/exit strokes and a generally energetic rhythm across lines of text.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and compact editorial settings where a bold italic voice is needed. It can also work effectively in branding and packaging, especially for products or identities that want a retro-leaning, energetic serif presence.
The overall tone is upbeat and assertive, combining a classic serif foundation with a spirited, informal italic drive. It suggests mid-century display energy—friendly but punchy—well-suited to attention-grabbing statements without feeling overly ornate.
The design appears aimed at delivering a conventional serif voice with amplified motion and impact through an expressive italic skeleton and softened, robust detailing. The goal seems to be strong display readability paired with a warm, dynamic personality.
Letterforms exhibit a mix of crisp serifs and soft, slightly swollen terminals that give a tactile, inked impression. The numerals match the italic momentum and carry the same rounded finishing, keeping headings and short numeric callouts visually consistent with text.
