A delicate slab serif with very thin, even stroke weight and crisp, squared terminals. Serifs are flat and lightly bracketed, giving a clean, structured silhouette without heavy emphasis. Proportions feel classical and open: round letters are generously circular, counters are large, and spacing reads measured and consistent in text. Numerals and capitals maintain the same restrained, linear construction, producing a neat, understated rhythm across lines.
Well suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and book or magazine typography where a refined slab voice is needed without visual heaviness. It can also work for premium branding and formal collateral when set at comfortable sizes and with ample whitespace to preserve its fine detailing.
The overall tone is quiet and polished—more editorial than industrial—combining the stability of slabs with an unusually light, elegant presence. It suggests careful typography, formality, and a contemporary minimalism rather than ruggedness.
The design appears intended to merge the dependable, structured feel of slab serifs with a light, modern sensibility—prioritizing elegance, openness, and typographic restraint while remaining straightforward and highly legible in display and larger text settings.
In the sample text, the thin joins and small details (like the ear and terminals on lowercase forms) read best when given sufficient size and generous leading. The design’s clarity comes from its strict geometry and restrained shaping rather than contrast or ornament.
