A very delicate slab serif with fine, hairline strokes and small squared serifs that read as precise rather than heavy. The letterforms are upright with open counters and a calm, even rhythm; curves are smoothly drawn and joins stay clean at this light weight. Capitals feel classical and measured, while the lowercase adds subtle calligraphic liveliness in details like the single-storey a and g and the gently hooked descenders. Numerals are similarly light and rounded, with clear, bookish shapes that suit continuous text.
Well suited to editorial typography—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined display settings—where its light, crisp slab serifs can shine. It can also work for upscale branding and packaging that wants a serif voice with a contemporary, minimal footprint, and for short-to-medium text passages at sizes that preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is refined and understated, leaning toward an editorial, fashion-forward elegance rather than a rugged or industrial slab. Its thin strokes and tidy serifs give it a quiet sophistication that feels modern and carefully composed.
Likely designed to bring slab-serif structure to a highly delicate, contemporary palette—combining squared serif cues with an airy, modern text color. The intent appears to balance classic proportions with subtle, graceful lowercase details for a polished editorial feel.
The design relies on clarity through openness and spacing rather than stroke strength, so it reads best when given room. Thin horizontals and serifs create a crisp, engraved impression in headings, while the text sample shows a smooth, consistent texture when set at comfortable sizes and leading.
