A slanted serif with pronounced contrast and energetic, calligraphic modulation. Strokes taper into sharp, wedge-like terminals and subtly flared endings, giving many letters a chiseled, forward-driving silhouette. The capitals are compact and weighty with crisp joins, while the lowercase shows a moderate x-height and lively curves that alternate between rounded bowls and angular, cut-in corners. Numerals follow the same high-contrast rhythm, with strong diagonals and pointed terminals that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other display-forward settings where its high contrast and sharp terminals can read as intentional character. It can also work for magazine or book-cover typography and bold brand statements, especially when paired with a calmer text face for extended reading.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, with an editorial, print-forward confidence. Its sharp terminals and forward slant suggest speed and emphasis, while the classic serif structure keeps it grounded and formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with amplified contrast and a distinctly italic, calligraphic bite—combining classic proportions with flared, wedge-like endings for maximum emphasis in display use.
Diagonal stress is prominent throughout, and the design leans on strong triangular cues (notably in diagonals and stroke endings), which increases sparkle at display sizes. The dense color and tight internal shaping can feel intense in long passages, favoring larger sizes or generous spacing.
