A very light slab serif with crisp, rectilinear terminals and fine, even strokes. Serifs read as flat, bracket-free slabs that stay delicate rather than heavy, giving the face a clean, etched appearance. Curves are smooth and open (notably in C, G, O, and e), while joins and corners remain sharp, producing a tidy, controlled texture. Proportions feel slightly expanded with generous internal space, and the lowercase maintains a steady, readable rhythm with unexaggerated ascenders/descenders and straightforward, workmanlike detailing in forms like a, g, and t.
Best suited to display and larger text settings—headlines, pull quotes, magazine titling, and book-cover typography—where the fine strokes can stay crisp. It can also support understated branding systems that want a literate, modern slab-seriffed voice, especially when paired with ample size and breathing room.
The overall tone is quiet and polished, leaning toward an editorial, contemporary-classic feel rather than overtly decorative. Its thin strokes and ample white space create an airy elegance that feels measured and composed.
The design appears intended as a neutral, contemporary slab serif that balances classical proportions with a lightweight, minimalist finish. Its consistent construction and restrained details suggest a focus on versatile editorial typography with a refined, airy presence.
The numerals follow the same light, linear construction, keeping counters open and shapes restrained for a consistent page color. In text, spacing and alignment appear regular and disciplined, supporting a smooth line-to-line flow without calling attention to individual letters.
