A very delicate, monoline slab-serif with tall proportions and a noticeably narrow set. Strokes are consistently thin with crisp, square-ended, unbracketed slab serifs that read as small horizontal caps and feet rather than heavy terminals. Curves are smooth and restrained, with generous interior counters relative to the thin strokes, and round forms like O and 0 appear slightly condensed and vertically oriented. The lowercase shows a straightforward, readable construction with modest ascenders/descenders and clean, minimalist detailing; numerals follow the same hairline, architectural rhythm.
Best suited to display and larger text sizes where its hairline strokes and crisp slab details can remain clear—such as magazine and book titling, pull quotes, fashion or lifestyle branding, packaging, and refined invitations. It can also work for short subheads where a narrow, elegant presence is desired.
The overall tone is poised and understated, combining a fashion/editorial elegance with a contemporary, architectural crispness. Its thin, precise linework conveys sophistication and restraint, with a slightly formal, gallery-like quietness.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, modern slab-serif voice with minimal contrast and precise, square serif terminations—balancing a contemporary editorial feel with a lightly classical, high-fashion silhouette.
Spacing appears measured and even, supporting long lines of text with a calm rhythm, while the narrow proportions create a high information density. The slab accents add a subtle structure and cadence, keeping the hairline strokes from feeling overly fragile.
