A slim, lightly drawn slab serif with a tall, condensed stance and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes are largely monoline, with soft rounding at joins and terminals that keeps the texture gentle rather than sharp. Serifs read as compact slab-like feet and caps, giving structure to the narrow forms without adding much weight. Counters are modest and vertical stress dominates, producing an orderly, columnar color in text.
Well-suited to editorial and book typography where a light, economical footprint is useful, especially for narrow columns and space-conscious layouts. It can also work for packaging, labels, and refined headings where a restrained slab-serif presence is desired without heavy contrast.
The overall tone feels refined and understated, with a slightly vintage, bookish character. Its narrow proportions and softened details lend a quiet elegance that reads as careful and composed rather than loud or decorative.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, legible slab-serif voice with softened terminals, balancing classic structure with a lighter, more delicate texture for space-efficient composition.
Capitals are tall and spare, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, readable construction with clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals follow the same condensed logic, supporting tight setting and consistent alignment in mixed text.
