A very fine, hairline slab serif with uniform stroke weight and crisp, mostly unbracketed serifs. The forms are spacious and lightly constructed, with round bowls that read cleanly and straight stems that feel precise and engineered. Proportions lean tall and stately, with a relatively small x-height and generous ascenders/descenders that create an open vertical rhythm. Details like the single-storey lowercase a, delicate terminals, and a distinctive lowercase g with a small ear give the design a quietly characterful, editorial feel while maintaining overall restraint.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, and short editorial passages where its fine slabs and tall proportions can shine. It also fits luxury branding, packaging, and invitation-style applications that benefit from a quiet, upscale serif presence, especially at larger sizes or in high-resolution output.
The font conveys a poised, high-end tone—minimal yet classical—suggesting fashion, culture, and literary publishing. Its thin lines and measured spacing feel calm and premium, with a subtle art-gallery sensibility rather than a loud display voice.
The design appears intended as a modern, minimal slab serif that borrows classical proportions while keeping stroke treatment strictly monoline. It prioritizes elegance and typographic finesse, offering a distinctive serif texture without heavy contrast or overt ornament.
In text settings the hairline strokes and small x-height emphasize elegance over density, so it reads best when allowed generous size and breathing room. Numerals are similarly light and refined, matching the serif rhythm and maintaining an even, delicate color across lines.
