A very thin, monoline serif design with a distinctly angular construction and crisp, squared terminals. Strokes maintain an even weight while sharp, wedge-like slab serifs and pointed joins give the letters a lightly spiky silhouette. Curves are often rendered as faceted, almost diamond-shaped ovals (notably in O/Q/0 and several lowercase bowls), creating a geometric rhythm rather than smooth roundness. The overall spacing and alignment read evenly, reinforcing a measured, grid-like texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where its delicate strokes and distinctive angular detailing can be appreciated—titles, posters, book covers, editorial headlines, and brand marks with a vintage or idiosyncratic voice. In longer passages it produces a consistent, patterned texture, but the fine weight and sharp detailing favor moderate sizes and ample contrast.
The font conveys an eccentric, slightly archaic tone—part scholarly, part playful. Its sharp serifs and faceted curves evoke antique titling and display lettering, while the uniform stroke and regular rhythm keep it feeling orderly and deliberate.
The design appears intended to reinterpret slab-serif structure through a geometric, faceted lens, prioritizing a distinctive silhouette and decorative sharpness while maintaining an even, systematic rhythm for consistent setting.
Several forms lean into stylized geometry: the circular characters appear as pointed ovals, and many diagonals terminate in crisp corners rather than softened curves. Numerals follow the same language, with angular shapes and slender, prominent serifs that keep the set cohesive.
