A delicate, double-line outline serif with monoline construction and generous interior whitespace. The capitals are tall and narrow with clean, slightly bracketed serifs and simple classical proportions, while rounds (C, O, Q) stay smooth and evenly drawn. Lowercase follows a bookish, oldstyle-influenced skeleton with a two-storey g and compact bowls, keeping counters open and strokes consistently spaced. Figures are slender and elegant, with the outline treatment giving every character a light, airy footprint and a crisp, high-clarity edge.
Best suited to headlines, titling, and short blocks of display copy where the outline detailing can be appreciated. It works well for logotypes, packaging, event materials, and editorial feature headings that want a refined vintage accent. Use at moderate-to-large sizes to preserve the interior gaps and maintain legibility.
The overall tone feels refined and decorative, with a distinctly vintage, Art Deco–adjacent elegance. Its airy outlines read as sophisticated and slightly theatrical, suggesting boutique branding and display typography rather than utilitarian text work.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic serif in a lightweight outline treatment, emphasizing elegance and ornament through negative space rather than stroke weight. It aims to deliver a decorative display voice while staying structured and readable through conventional serif proportions.
The outline spacing is consistent across straight stems and curved forms, creating a steady rhythm in words and lines. Thin joins and delicate terminals benefit from ample size and contrasty backgrounds, where the open interiors can remain distinct.
