A sturdy italic slab serif with broad, blocky serifs and a consistent, low-contrast stroke. The italic slant is pronounced and uniform, giving the forms forward motion while keeping the overall construction solid and rectangular. Serifs read as wide and supportive with mostly flat ends and minimal bracketing, and joins stay clean rather than calligraphic. Proportions are fairly compact with tight internal counters and a strong baseline presence, producing a dense, high-impact texture in lines of text.
This font is well suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where an italic voice needs to feel emphatic and grounded. It can also support branding and packaging that benefits from a strong, traditional slab-serif signal, and it scales well for poster-style typography where its compact texture and sturdy serifs help maintain presence.
The overall tone feels assertive and classic, combining a traditional slab-serif seriousness with an energetic italic posture. It suggests editorial confidence and a slightly sporty, headline-driven attitude rather than delicate elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful italic slab-serif voice: energetic in posture, but built on robust, rectangular forms for reliability and impact. It aims to provide a confident emphasis style that reads clearly while still feeling bold and purposeful.
Caps are bold and stable with clear, squared-off geometry, while the lowercase maintains a readable, workmanlike rhythm in paragraph settings. Numerals appear sturdy and display-friendly, matching the same slabbed, forward-leaning character as the letters.
