A very thin, evenly weighted slab serif with generous spacing and a clean, controlled rhythm. Serifs are small, square and lightly bracketed, giving a subtle slab presence without adding visual heaviness. Curves are smooth and open, with round forms staying near-monoline and terminals ending cleanly. Proportions feel balanced and traditional, with moderate ascenders/descenders and numerals that match the light, precise texture of the letters.
Works well for editorial typography where a light, high-end texture is desired—magazine features, book interiors at comfortable sizes, and restrained branding. It can also support packaging or identity systems that benefit from a classic serif voice without strong contrast or dramatic flourishes.
The overall tone is refined and understated, with a calm, literary polish. Its hairline strokes and tidy slabs create an elegant, slightly formal impression suited to quiet sophistication rather than loud display.
Likely designed to provide a dependable slab serif foundation with a very light, refined voice—prioritizing clean construction, consistent rhythm, and a polished reading texture for editorial and brand applications.
In text settings the light color creates an airy page, while the squared serifs add just enough structure to keep lines feeling orderly. The design reads as contemporary-classic: traditional serif cues rendered with a minimal, delicate touch.
