A very light slab serif with crisp, linear construction and minimal stroke modulation. Serifs are square and unbracketed, reading as small horizontal/vertical terminals that keep the texture steady rather than decorative. Proportions are open and generously spaced, with round forms that stay smooth and consistent and a notably tall lowercase that keeps the x-height prominent. Overall rhythm is even and clean, producing a pale, high‑clarity page color suited to large sizes and careful spacing.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and display settings where its fine strokes and open spacing can breathe. It works well for editorial layouts, fashion or cultural branding, and sophisticated print pieces such as invitations or programs, especially on high-contrast backgrounds and at larger point sizes.
The tone is refined and quiet, with an editorial, gallery-like restraint. Its hairline weight and precise slab endings feel formal and contemporary, giving text a composed, confident presence without overt personality.
The design appears intended as a modern workhorse slab serif in an ultra-light voice: a clean, structured serif option that adds typographic formality and alignment without heavy contrast or calligraphic influence.
Uppercase forms appear classical in stance with straightforward geometry, while the lowercase keeps counters wide and legible, reinforcing an airy texture. Numerals share the same delicate build and simple terminals, matching the alphabet without introducing extra ornament.
