A slanted, high-contrast design with sharp, tapered terminals and smooth, tensioned curves. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation and a consistent forward angle, giving letterforms a brisk rhythm. Uppercase shapes are compact and structured, while the lowercase is more fluid, with single-storey forms (notably a and g) and pronounced entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same italic construction, with narrow silhouettes and crisp finishing details that keep the texture lively and articulate.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, subheads, and pull quotes, where contrast and motion can add emphasis. It can also serve for book covers, cultural branding, and invitation-style materials that benefit from a refined italic voice, and it can work for short text passages when generous size and spacing are available.
The overall tone feels polished and editorial, combining a traditional italic sensibility with clean, modern restraint. Its contrast and sweeping motion read as confident and sophisticated, lending a sense of formality without becoming overly ornate.
Likely designed to deliver an energetic italic with pronounced contrast and a clean silhouette, offering a sophisticated voice for emphasis and display. The consistent slant and crisp terminals suggest an intention to balance classic italic elegance with contemporary clarity.
Counters are relatively open for an italic of this contrast level, helping words hold together in longer lines. The italic angle is strong enough to read immediately, and the pointed terminals and wedge-like finishes add sparkle at display sizes while remaining composed in text.
