A slanted, high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty main strokes, producing a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. The serifs are bracketed and tapered, with sharp terminals and a distinctly calligraphic influence in the joins and curves. Proportions read generously set with open counters and strong vertical emphasis; rounded forms like O and 0 feel sculpted and smooth, while diagonal letters show clean, confident stress. Numerals and capitals carry a stately presence, and lowercase forms maintain clear structure with lively, angled details.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and cover typography where its contrast and slant can deliver impact. It also works well for brand identities and campaign materials that want a classic foundation with a more dynamic, upscale edge.
The overall tone is polished and assertive, combining traditional book-serif authority with a more theatrical, fashion-editorial flair. The steep contrast and energetic slant add drama and momentum, making the voice feel premium and attention-getting rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to modernize a conventional serif for high-impact typesetting, emphasizing contrast, sharpened detailing, and an italic-driven energy to elevate tone and prominence in editorial and branding contexts.
Spacing in the samples appears comfortable, helping the heavy strokes avoid clogging while letting fine hairlines stay visible. The design’s contrast and angled forms create a strong texture line-to-line, especially in larger settings where the crisp details read cleanly.
