A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline serifs. The letterforms show a calligraphic, broad-nib-like stress and a slightly flowing rhythm, with tapered terminals and finely cut joins. Proportions feel balanced and text-oriented, with open counters and a restrained, consistent slant that keeps long lines smooth despite the light strokes. Numerals and capitals match the same refined contrast, with crisp diagonals and elegantly curved bowls.
Best suited to editorial typography where elegance and contrast are assets—magazine headlines, fashion and lifestyle layouts, refined branding, and large-size typographic moments such as pull quotes. It can also work for short to medium passages in high-quality print or high-resolution digital settings where its fine hairlines can be preserved.
The overall tone is poised and polished, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its lightness and graceful italic movement suggest a high-end, fashion and culture context rather than utilitarian everyday text. The style feels timeless but contemporary in its cleanliness and restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver a sophisticated italic voice for conventional reading and display typography, emphasizing calligraphic nuance, high contrast, and a bright page texture. It prioritizes elegance and rhythm over rugged robustness, aiming for a polished, premium typographic impression.
The italic forms are clearly integral to the design rather than an oblique slant, with expressive entry/exit strokes on many lowercase letters and subtly sculpted serifs on capitals. The light hairlines and high contrast make spacing and background whiteness a prominent part of the texture, giving paragraphs an airy, upscale color.
