A very fine, hairline slab-serif with crisp, square-ended terminals and subtle, controlled bracketing where stems meet serifs. The design balances straight, architectural stems with gently rounded bowls, creating a calm rhythm and a clean, open texture. Capitals feel narrow and poised with precise horizontals, while the lowercase shows a lightly calligraphic touch in curves and terminals. Numerals are thin and carefully drawn, maintaining the same restrained stroke logic and sharp finishing throughout.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, title pages, and refined branding where a light, premium impression is desired. It can work for short passages at comfortable sizes and line spacing, particularly in print-oriented layouts or high-resolution environments where hairline details remain intact.
The overall tone is quiet and cultivated—more gallery label than billboard. Its hairline build and tidy slabs convey refinement and formality, with a faint old-style, bookish character that reads as classic rather than playful.
The design appears intended to merge a modern hairline delicacy with the grounding presence of slab serifs, producing a high-end, typographic voice that feels both structured and graceful. Its consistent finishing and controlled contrast suggest an emphasis on display clarity and elegant texture over rugged text durability.
Because the strokes are extremely thin, the face relies on generous spacing and clear forms for legibility; it visually shines when given room to breathe. The square, slabby finishing adds structure and keeps the light weight from feeling overly fragile, especially in headings and display sizes.
