A delicate serif with slim, tapered strokes and fine bracketed serifs that stay crisp at the terminals. Curves are smooth and generously drawn, with open counters and relatively large internal spaces that keep the texture airy. The capitals feel formal and evenly proportioned, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with modest stroke modulation and clean joins. Numerals follow the same restrained, bookish logic, reading clearly without becoming heavy or geometric.
Well suited to long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where an airy, refined texture is desirable. It can also serve for elegant headlines, pull quotes, and understated brand materials when paired with ample size and leading to preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is quiet and cultivated—more bookish than loud, with a polished, editorial sensibility. Its light touch and controlled contrast suggest elegance and restraint rather than display theatrics.
The design intention reads as a conventional, text-oriented serif optimized for a graceful page color and comfortable reading, while remaining polished enough for editorial display settings. It balances classic proportions with a notably light, modern delicacy in its detailing.
Spacing appears comfortable and slightly on the open side, helping the thin details breathe in running text. The design avoids sharp, flashy flourishes; instead it relies on consistent serif treatment and smooth curvature for its character.
