A very slender slab serif with crisp, square-ended terminals and an overall hairline rhythm. Strokes are consistently light and even, with generous counters and open apertures that keep the color bright on the page. Serifs read as small, flat slabs that meet stems cleanly, giving the design a precise, constructed feel despite the fragility of the weight. The lowercase is simple and restrained, with compact shoulders and a tidy, vertical texture; figures are similarly light and unobtrusive, matching the text tone rather than calling attention to themselves.
This font is well suited to editorial typography, book and magazine display, and refined headline work where a light, spacious texture is desirable. It can also work for invitations and branding applications that benefit from a delicate, contemporary slab-serif voice, especially in larger sizes or high-contrast printing.
The font projects a quiet, elegant restraint—more editorial and gallery-like than loud or assertive. Its thin lines and sharp details suggest a modern, considered sensibility, with a slightly bookish, cultured tone that feels composed and measured.
The design appears intended to merge the disciplined structure of slab serifs with an ultra-light, modern execution—prioritizing cleanliness, precision, and a bright, open page color for elegant display and refined reading settings.
At text sizes the design remains crisp and orderly, but the extremely light stroke weight makes it best suited to settings where fine detail won’t be lost. The spacing feels generous, contributing to an airy reading rhythm in the sample paragraph.
