A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and generally low stroke modulation. The shapes are compact and dark, with rounded joins and softened corners that keep the weight from feeling brittle. Terminals are blunt and horizontal, counters are moderately open, and curves (notably in C, G, O, S) stay smooth and controlled. The italic is more of a strong oblique with consistent construction, giving the alphabet an even rhythm and a solid, workmanlike texture in text.
Best suited to headline and short-to-medium text settings where a strong, emphatic voice is desired—editorial openers, posters, packaging, and bold brand typography. It can also work for pull quotes and subheads that need weight and presence without ornate detailing.
The overall tone feels assertive and utilitarian, with a familiar, slightly vintage print flavor. Its slanted stance and thick slabs add energy and emphasis, reading as confident and no-nonsense rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended as a dependable, hard-working italic slab that delivers impact and clarity, combining a classic slab-serif foundation with a pronounced slant for emphasis and motion.
In the sample paragraph the face holds a steady color and maintains clear word shapes at display sizes, with the serifs reinforcing horizontal flow. The numerals appear equally weighty and straightforward, matching the letters for consistent emphasis in headings and callouts.
