A very light serif with crisp, square-ended slab-like terminals and a clean, unbracketed joining into stems. Strokes are predominantly hairline with subtly modulated contrast, giving an airy texture and a high-waisted feel in many capitals. Curves are smooth and open, counters are generous, and spacing reads measured rather than tight. The lowercase shows compact bowls and a restrained, vertical rhythm; numerals follow the same thin, precise construction with clean, flat terminals.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headings, book and album covers, fashion or cultural branding, and pull quotes where its thin strokes can remain clear. It can work for short passages at larger sizes, but the hairline details suggest using it where print quality or high-resolution rendering supports delicate forms.
The overall tone is poised and polished, projecting a quiet luxury associated with editorial and cultural contexts. Its delicate weight and tidy slabs feel modern-classic rather than rustic, with a composed, slightly formal voice that stays understated.
The design appears intended to merge the sharp finish and authority of slab-like serifs with an unusually light, sophisticated drawing. It aims for a contemporary editorial voice—precise, airy, and premium—while keeping letterforms conventional enough to read smoothly in curated typographic layouts.
In the sample text, the long ascenders and fine horizontals create a distinctive light gray color that benefits from ample size or comfortable leading. The squared terminals add definition at the ends of strokes, helping letters keep their shape despite the extremely thin construction.
