A heavy, right-leaning serif italic with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline joins. Stems and serifs flare into sharp wedge terminals, producing a sculpted, slightly calligraphic texture rather than rigid straight cuts. The letterforms show compact counters and strong joining curves, with brisk diagonals in characters like V, W, X, and Y and a generally energetic baseline rhythm. Numerals echo the same swelling strokes and pointed terminals, with an especially graphic, curled tail on the 9 and a compact, looped 8.
Best suited to display settings where its weight, contrast, and strong italic motion can do the work—headlines, posters, cover lines, and bold pull quotes. It can also serve branding applications like packaging or energetic identity work where a classic serif feel is desired without looking static.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, combining a traditional serif voice with a punchy, kinetic italic slant. It reads as confident and attention-seeking, suited to messaging that wants to feel decisive, spirited, and a bit dramatic.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, headline-ready serif italic that blends classical wedge-seriffed forms with a dynamic, modern stance. Its flared terminals and tight counters suggest a focus on strong texture and silhouette for attention-driven typography.
Round letters (C, G, O, Q) appear tightly drawn with thick outer strokes and narrow internal spaces, which increases the dark color on the page. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving long lines a strong forward motion and a noticeably shaped silhouette.
