A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Bracketed serifs and subtly calligraphic stroke endings give the letterforms a lively, pen-influenced texture, while the overall color stays confident and dark. Counters are moderately open, with a slightly compact rhythm and noticeable entry/exit strokes that add motion across words. The figures and capitals share the same high-contrast, angled stress, creating a cohesive set for text and display.
Well suited to editorial applications such as magazine headlines, book typography, and pull quotes where an assertive italic voice is desirable. It can also work for refined packaging or branding that benefits from classic serif cues and a dynamic slant, especially at medium to large sizes where the contrast and details remain clear.
The tone is traditional and editorial, with a refined, slightly theatrical energy. Its sharp contrast and italic stance feel expressive and literary, suggesting authority without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to deliver a traditional serif reading impression while adding emphasis through an energetic italic structure and strong contrast. The intent appears to balance conventional proportions with expressive, calligraphic terminals for a more distinctive editorial presence.
In running text, the italic angle and stroke tapering create a strong forward flow, and the heavier main strokes keep the texture bold at larger sizes. The shapes read as conventional and familiar, but with enough calligraphic flair in terminals and serifs to stand out in headings and pull quotes.
