A narrow, humanist-leaning text face with gently tapered strokes and soft, calligraphic modulation. Curves are smooth and slightly organic, with subtly flared terminals and occasional bracket-like joins that give the letterforms a drawn, bookish rhythm rather than a mechanical one. The lowercase shows lively structure—single-storey forms and angled, slightly cursive construction in places—while capitals stay clean and open, with rounded bowls and restrained detailing. Numerals follow the same tapered logic, with a prominent 2 and 3 featuring flowing curves and a distinctive open-form 4.
Well-suited to book interiors, editorial layouts, and magazine typography where a narrow footprint helps fit more text without feeling compressed. The distinctive, tapered detailing also makes it useful for refined branding, packaging, and display lines that want a classic voice with subtle character.
The overall tone feels literary and traditional, like a modernized classical text voice with a hint of eccentricity. It reads as thoughtful and cultured, but not austere—small idiosyncrasies in terminals and curves add warmth and personality.
The design appears intended to provide a readable, compact text style with a humanist, slightly calligraphic flavor. It aims to balance traditional literary cues with simplified, contemporary construction, yielding a familiar but individually voiced typographic color.
Spacing and proportions suggest a text-first rhythm: counters remain open, apertures are clear, and strokes avoid brittle hairlines. The design mixes clean, simplified construction with occasional handwritten gestures (notably in lowercase curves and diagonals), creating a gentle tension between formal and expressive.
