A delicate hairline serif with predominantly monoline strokes and subtle flared terminals that act like understated serifs. Proportions are open and horizontally generous, with rounded bowls and long, smooth curves that keep counters airy. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and simplified constructions, while the uppercase maintains a calm, architectural rhythm with crisp joins and occasional softened corners. Numerals follow the same spare, linear logic, with gentle curvature and minimal modulation for a consistent, lightweight texture.
Well suited to fashion and beauty branding, magazine headlines, and high-end packaging where elegance and white space are part of the visual system. It can also work for short editorial passages at display sizes, especially in print or high-resolution digital layouts where its fine strokes remain crisp.
The overall tone is poised and quiet, projecting a clean, upscale refinement rather than overt ornament. Its extreme lightness and spacious rhythm create a sense of breath and calm, reading as modern-luxury and editorial when given room to shine.
The font appears designed to deliver an ultra-light, modern serif voice with a restrained, decorative edge—prioritizing atmosphere, spaciousness, and a refined silhouette over dense text economy. Its flared terminals and simplified forms suggest an intent to feel both classic-adjacent and distinctly contemporary.
The design relies on thin strokes and generous spacing, so it performs best at larger sizes and in high-contrast reproduction where the hairlines won’t disappear. The small, flared terminals help maintain a serif identity without adding visual weight, keeping the texture smooth and contemporary.
