This typeface has extremely thin strokes with crisp, bracketed slab serifs that read as delicate horizontal terminals rather than heavy blocks. The proportions are broad with ample sidebearings, creating a spacious rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Curves are clean and near-monoline, with open apertures and round bowls; joins stay restrained and smooth. Details like the two-storey “a” and “g,” the small beak-like terminals, and the simple, open numerals reinforce a measured, editorial construction.
Well-suited to editorial headlines and subheads, magazine and catalog typography, and brand systems that want a refined slab-serif flavor without visual heaviness. It can also work nicely for invitations, packaging, and short blocks of text when set large enough to keep the hairline details intact.
The overall tone is quiet and polished, leaning toward a bookish, gallery-like elegance. Its hairline build and wide stance give it a composed, high-end feel that suits understated sophistication more than punchy display drama.
The design appears intended as a modern, minimal slab-serif with a refined, hairline presence—combining classic serif structure with a contemporary lightness and generous proportions for elegant typographic layouts.
At text sizes, the very thin serifs and hairline horizontals can become subtle, so the design reads best where reproduction is clean and contrast is controlled. The generous width and spacing give lines an airy cadence and help preserve clarity despite the light stroke weight.
