This is a very delicate serif with extremely thin strokes and crisp, sharply finished terminals. Serifs are small and pointed, with a fine, chiseled look that keeps the outlines precise rather than soft. Curves are smooth and round with minimal optical bulging, while diagonals and joins stay clean and restrained, producing an overall calm rhythm. The lowercase is narrow and neatly proportioned with a two-storey “g,” a gently arced “t,” and compact bowls; the uppercase has generous verticality and open counters, giving the face a light, spacious texture in text.
Well suited to magazines, lookbooks, and other editorial settings where elegance and whitespace are part of the aesthetic. It can work effectively for luxury brand identities, packaging, and invitations when used at display sizes or in high-quality print. For longer passages, it performs best in larger body sizes or carefully controlled reproduction where its fine strokes remain intact.
The font conveys a poised, upscale tone—quietly formal, editorial, and fashion-adjacent. Its hairline presence feels modern and minimal, while the serif detailing adds a classical, literary polish. The overall impression is sophisticated and understated rather than bold or loud.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif: light, precise, and spacious, prioritizing elegance and refined tone over heavy emphasis. Its consistent delicacy across capitals, lowercase, and numerals suggests a focus on polished display and upscale editorial typography.
Because the strokes are extremely fine, the design reads best when given enough size or contrast to the background; in the sample text it produces a pale, high-end page color with lots of white space. Numerals appear similarly light and refined, matching the text’s vertical emphasis and delicate detailing.
