A bold italic slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and flat-ended terminals. Strokes show a clear diagonal emphasis that creates a lively, forward-leaning rhythm, with rounded joins and slightly beaked details at some terminals. Proportions feel compact and energetic: counters are moderately open, curves are full, and the overall texture is dark and even without becoming clotted. Numerals and capitals carry the same robust, serifed construction, giving the face a cohesive, emphatic presence across text and display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and short-to-medium editorial passages where an energetic italic slab can carry voice and emphasis. It can also work effectively in branding and packaging that calls for a robust, heritage-leaning presence with strong word shapes.
The tone reads classic and assertive, with a vintage, print-like flavor reminiscent of traditional editorial or poster typography. Its italic movement adds urgency and momentum, while the slab structure keeps it grounded and durable—confident rather than delicate.
Likely intended as an impactful italic slab for attention-forward typography—combining sturdy serifs for authority with a pronounced slant for motion and personality. The design balances display punch with enough regularity to remain usable in running text when set at comfortable sizes.
The letterforms maintain a consistent serif grammar across upper- and lowercase, producing a strong horizontal anchoring along baselines and caps. The italic slant and slightly calligraphic modulation give long lines of text a rolling cadence, making the face feel expressive while remaining legible.
