A crisp outline serif with bracketed serifs and gently rounded joins, drawing each letter as a hollow contour rather than a filled form. The outlines are clean and consistent, with broad proportions and ample interior space that keeps counters open. Curves are smooth and slightly softened, while horizontals and serifs stay orderly, giving the alphabet an even, readable rhythm despite the single-line contour construction.
Best suited to headlines and short display settings where the outlined construction can be appreciated—posters, pull quotes, book or magazine display typography, and premium-feeling packaging. It can also work for invitations or signage when set with sufficient size and spacing to prevent the outlines from visually filling in.
The overall tone feels classic and bookish, like a traditional text serif translated into a light, airy display treatment. Its hollow construction adds a refined, decorative character that reads as elegant and slightly playful rather than heavy or rugged.
The design appears intended to evoke a conventional serif voice while delivering a lighter, more graphic presentation through an outlined drawing style. It prioritizes elegance and clarity in large-scale use, turning familiar letterforms into a distinctive contour-based look.
The sample text shows good clarity at large sizes, where the double-edge contour effect becomes a prominent visual feature. Round letters (O, Q, e) and numerals maintain generous interior space, helping the outline style stay legible without looking cramped.
