A very slender italic serif with a spacious footprint and pronounced rightward slant. Strokes are hairline-thin and mostly even in weight, giving the letterforms a clean, linear rhythm; the joins stay crisp rather than softened. Serifs read as small, square-ended slabs that extend subtly from the stems, while curves are drawn with a smooth, continuous tension and generous counters. Overall spacing feels open, with long, gently tapered terminals and a calm, consistent texture in text.
Best suited to editorial and cultural applications where a light, elegant italic voice is desired—magazine features, book or chapter openers, pull quotes, and refined brand accents. It can also work well for invitations and premium packaging where delicacy and whitespace are part of the design.
The tone is delicate and cultured, suggesting literary and editorial refinement rather than assertive display. Its lightness and airy spacing give it a graceful, almost whispered presence, with a modern, minimal take on classic italic forms.
The design appears intended to deliver an understated, contemporary italic with slab-like serif cues, prioritizing elegance, openness, and a refined page color over heavy contrast or bold presence.
The italic construction is pronounced across both caps and lowercase, and the numerals share the same slender, linear treatment. In longer passages the texture stays bright and open, with character shapes remaining distinct through generous counters and clean serif articulation.
