A delicate serif design built from an outer contour with a parallel inner line that creates a consistent inline/outlined effect. Strokes are slender and clean, with crisp wedge-like serifs and tapered terminals that give forms a carved, engraved quality. Curves are smooth and generously open (notably in C, O, Q, and S), while verticals stay straight and formal; the overall rhythm feels airy with plenty of interior space. Uppercase letters are stately and slightly narrow-to-moderate in proportion, and the lowercase maintains clear, classical shapes with a readable, moderate x-height and restrained extenders.
Best suited to display settings where the inline outline detail can be appreciated: headlines, logotypes, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, invitations, and poster titling. It can work for short editorial callouts or pull quotes, but the fine interior line suggests using comfortable sizes and spacing for sustained text.
The inline outline treatment reads as luxurious and ornamental, evoking vintage signage and Art Deco-era refinement. Its light, airy construction feels poised and glamorous rather than utilitarian, lending a sense of ceremony and polish to short phrases and titles.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with a decorative, inline outline twist—prioritizing sophistication and distinctive presence over minimalism. Its consistent inner contour and refined serifs suggest a focus on stylish branding and vintage-inspired display typography.
The double-line construction is especially prominent on stems and bowls, producing a subtle “shadowed” strip that stays consistent across straight and curved strokes. Numerals share the same graceful, old-style-inspired curvature and benefit from generous counters, keeping them visually cohesive with the letters.
