A wide, italic serif with softly bracketed serifs and a smooth, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with gently tapered terminals, giving the letterforms a polished, continuous flow rather than sharp, angular cuts. Proportions are generously set—especially in the capitals and numerals—while counters stay open and legible. The italic is built into the design (not simply obliqued), with consistent slant and curved entry/exit strokes across both upper- and lowercase.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an italic serif is expected to carry personality—magazine headlines, pull quotes, book jackets, and refined branding. Its generous width and built-in slant also make it effective for display lines and short passages where a dynamic, classic voice is desired.
The overall tone feels literary and editorial, combining classical serif cues with a lively, forward motion. It reads as refined and slightly formal, with enough warmth in the curves to avoid stiffness.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with an expressive italic character, prioritizing readable, open forms while adding sophistication through moderated contrast and bracketed detailing.
Capitals present a stately, display-like presence, while the lowercase maintains a steady text rhythm through clear bowls and restrained joins. The figures are broad and smooth, matching the overall width and italic movement, which supports cohesive settings in mixed alphanumeric content.
