A very light slab serif with hairline strokes, generous white space, and a restrained, even rhythm. Serifs read as small, squared slabs with clean terminals, giving the letters a crisp, engineered finish despite the delicate weight. Proportions are fairly narrow with tall capitals and a modest x-height; counters stay open and the overall color remains pale on the page. Curves (C, G, O, Q, S) are smooth and round, while verticals and horizontals stay straight and tidy, producing a consistent, controlled texture in text.
This design fits best in editorial and book settings where a light, elegant slab serif is desired, particularly for headlines, pull quotes, and refined short-form text. It also suits invitations, packaging, and brand systems that need a classic, minimal voice with a touch of structured formality.
The tone is quiet and composed, with a classic editorial feel. Its slender slabs and careful spacing suggest formality and refinement rather than warmth, lending a literate, institutional voice suited to polished communication.
The font appears intended as a plain, dependable slab serif rendered in an exceptionally light weight—aiming for clarity and classic structure while projecting a refined, airy presence. Its consistent construction and restrained detailing suggest a focus on versatility and typographic polish rather than novelty.
Figures are slim and straightforward, matching the type’s lightness; curved digits (2, 3, 5, 6, 9) keep a gentle, continuous flow, while straighter forms (1, 4, 7) remain crisp and minimal. Lowercase includes a single-storey a and g, and the overall punctuation and diacritics (as seen in the sample text) maintain the same thin, clean construction.
