A hairline slab-serif with unbracketed, flat serifs and a noticeably right-leaning italic posture. Strokes are extremely thin and even, with crisp joins and pointed terminals on diagonals, giving a taut, architectural feel. Letterforms are wide and open with generous counters; curves are smooth and near-monoline, while horizontals and serifs read as fine rules. The rhythm is calm and spaced, and the overall texture is light and transparent on the page.
Best suited to display typography where its hairline slabs and wide proportions can be appreciated—magazine mastheads, refined headlines, fashion or cultural posters, and book-cover titling. It can work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when set with ample size and careful contrast, but will be most reliable in larger settings.
The tone is elegant and understated, leaning toward fashion and contemporary editorial styling. Its thin, airy construction feels precise and cultivated rather than warm or rustic, suggesting a modern, gallery-like restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-end, modern editorial voice by pairing crisp unbracketed slabs with an italic lean and a very light, open texture. It emphasizes elegance, whitespace, and sharp detailing over robustness.
The combination of slab serifs with a pronounced italic slant creates a distinctive blend of classical structure and contemporary styling. At smaller sizes the hairline build may fade on low-contrast backgrounds, while at display sizes the fine serifs and wide bowls become a defining detail.
