An italic slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and softly squared terminals that read as firm but not rigid. Strokes are relatively even in weight, with gentle modulation and a consistent, slightly calligraphic slant. The capitals are wide and calmly proportioned, while the lowercase shows clear, traditional shapes with rounded joins and a smooth rhythm through curves and diagonals. Numerals are open and legible, matching the same italic angle and slab treatment for a cohesive texture in mixed copy.
Well suited for editorial typography where an italic voice is needed with strong legibility—magazine features, book interiors, and pull quotes. The sturdy slabs also make it effective for short display lines in packaging or branding that aims for a classic print sensibility.
The overall tone feels editorial and bookish, evoking printed literature and classic publishing rather than overt modern minimalism. Its italic energy adds motion and emphasis, while the slab structure keeps the voice grounded and authoritative.
The design appears intended to provide a reliable, readable italic companion with a confident slab-serif backbone—combining emphasis and forward motion with a stable, traditional text texture.
Spacing appears balanced for text, creating an even typographic color in paragraphs. The italic is more of an oblique with disciplined forms rather than a highly flowing script-like italic, making it suitable for extended setting without looking decorative.
