A delicate slab-serif with extremely thin, nearly monoline strokes and crisp, squared terminals. Serifs are small and straight, giving a lightly bracketless, architectural finish that stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Proportions feel classical and slightly condensed in the curves, with clean bowls, narrow joints, and careful spacing that keeps the texture even despite the hairline weight. Numerals are similarly slender and restrained, matching the letterforms’ minimal, precise construction.
Best suited to large-size editorial settings, fashion and lifestyle layouts, and high-end branding where its hairline slabs can read cleanly. It also works well for invitations, packaging, and refined headlines that benefit from a quiet, premium texture rather than heavy contrast or overt decoration.
The overall tone is refined and understated, leaning toward editorial elegance rather than display exuberance. Its hairline presence reads quiet and cultured, with a modern, minimalist poise that still nods to traditional book typography through its slab-serif structure.
The design appears aimed at delivering a minimal, contemporary interpretation of a slab-serif voice—keeping the structure recognizable while stripping weight and ornament to emphasize precision, spacing, and an airy page color.
Because the strokes are so fine, counters and apertures remain open and tidy, but the face will visually lighten quickly at smaller sizes or on low-resolution output. In the sample text, the consistent verticals and crisp serifs create a measured rhythm that favors careful typesetting and generous leading.
