A condensed, lightly built print face with subtly calligraphic construction and tapered terminals. Strokes show modest contrast with smooth swelling on curves and fine hairline-like joins, giving an inked, hand-drawn feel while staying consistent across the set. Proportions are tall and narrow, with open counters and a slightly variable rhythm from glyph to glyph; rounds are oval and vertical stress is apparent. The lowercase reads cleanly with a single-story “a” and a looped “g,” while caps are slim and stately with restrained, bracket-like serifs and occasional gentle flaring.
This font suits short to medium text where a graceful, condensed voice is helpful—editorial headlines, pull quotes, book or album covers, invitations, and boutique branding. It can also work for posters and packaging where vertical economy and a hand-rendered elegance are desired, especially when paired with a simpler companion for body copy.
The overall tone feels refined yet informal—like neat pen lettering adapted for typography. Its narrow silhouette and soft modulation create an airy, slightly old-fashioned charm that can read poetic, editorial, and a touch whimsical rather than strictly utilitarian.
The design appears intended to capture the character of tidy handwritten print—thin, tall, and gently modulated—while remaining legible and consistent in continuous text. It prioritizes a distinctive, literary presence and space-saving proportions over purely neutral, text-face regularity.
The digit set follows the same slender, tapered logic, with the “1” and “7” particularly linear and the “0” notably narrow and upright. Spacing in text appears even, but the condensed shapes and fine joins suggest it benefits from comfortable sizes and breathing room in layout.
