A very light, monoline slab serif with square, unbracketed terminals and a clean, even stroke rhythm. Serifs read as thin horizontal (and occasional vertical) bars that meet stems abruptly, giving the design a crisp, engineered finish. Proportions are balanced with moderate caps, a normal x-height, and open apertures; curves stay smooth and controlled with minimal contrast and clear, round counters (notably in C/O/Q and the lowercase bowls). The overall texture is spacious and bright, with fine hairline details and a steady baseline presence.
Well suited to editorial typography where an elegant, light serif presence is needed—magazine features, book interiors, pull quotes, and refined marketing copy. It can also work for brand systems and packaging that benefit from a crisp, modern serif with a subtle slab signature, especially at comfortable text sizes where the fine strokes remain clear.
The font conveys a calm, modern refinement—quietly formal without feeling heavy or ornate. Its delicate slabs add a subtle structural tone that suggests editorial polish, minimalist branding, and a slightly academic sensibility.
The design appears intended to blend contemporary minimalism with the stability of slab serifs, providing a distinctive but understated voice for long-form reading and polished display text. Its consistent stroke weight and square serif joins emphasize clarity, structure, and a clean typographic color.
In text, the light weight and generous internal space keep paragraphs airy, while the slab terminals help preserve a consistent horizontal rhythm. Numerals appear similarly light and open, matching the restrained, precision-led character of the letters.
