A very thin, hairline slab serif with unbracketed, rectangular terminals and a wide, open stance. Strokes stay consistently light and even, with minimal modulation, while counters and bowls read large and rounded. The design favors long horizontals and generous spacing, producing a spacious rhythm; lowercase forms show a relatively tall x-height and simple, clean construction. Numerals and capitals maintain the same delicate, crisp serif treatment, giving the set a uniform, pared-back texture.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, fashion or arts magazines, and brand identities that want a crisp, high-end slab serif with plenty of whitespace. It can work for short passages and pull quotes when set at comfortable sizes and with sufficient contrast, and it also lends a refined touch to packaging and titling.
The overall tone is quiet and elegant, with a contemporary, gallery-like restraint. Its fine lines and open proportions feel sophisticated and deliberate, lending a polished, editorial sensibility rather than a loud or rugged slab presence.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif structure with a minimalist, hairline execution—prioritizing openness, cleanliness, and a contemporary silhouette over heaviness or traditional text robustness. It aims for a distinctive, wide-set voice that feels modern and premium.
Because the strokes are extremely thin, the face reads most clearly when allowed ample size and contrast against its background. The wide forms and extended horizontals create a distinctive, airy line in text, with a subtle display character even in running settings.
