A very thin, right-leaning serif with crisp, squared slab terminals that read as unbracketed and neatly clipped. Strokes stay largely even, giving it a calm, linear texture, while sharp joins and long entry/exit strokes create a lively diagonal rhythm. Proportions are moderately tall with generous counters and open apertures, and the numerals follow the same lean with clean, minimal detailing.
Well-suited to display typography where its delicate slabs and italic rhythm can be appreciated—magazine titles, fashion and lifestyle branding, boutique packaging, and invitation or announcement work. It can also serve as a refined accent face paired with a sturdier text family.
The overall tone is sophisticated and understated, combining a fashion-like lightness with a slightly formal, bookish discipline. Its italic motion adds elegance and speed without becoming flamboyant, producing a poised, contemporary editorial feel.
The design appears intended to fuse the authority of slab terminals with the lightness of a hairline italic, creating a distinctive, high-end voice for display settings. It prioritizes elegance, pace, and crisp finishing over heavy texture or utilitarian robustness.
Because the hairline weight and sharp slab ends are so fine, the design reads best when given room—tight settings and small sizes can cause the details and terminals to visually soften. The slanted forms maintain consistent spacing and a smooth baseline flow, which helps longer phrases feel continuous and calm.
