A very slender slab serif with straight, square-ended terminals and small, unbracketed slabs that read as crisp crossbars at the ends of strokes. Stems are consistently thin and even, with a restrained, low-contrast rhythm and generous interior space that keeps counters open. Proportions feel tall and slightly condensed in the lowercase, with long ascenders/descenders and a high-waisted look in letters like n, m, and h; curves are smooth and controlled in O, C, and S. Numerals are equally light and clean, with simple construction and ample whitespace, giving the set an overall airy, architectural texture.
Well-suited to fashion and lifestyle branding, editorial headlines, pull quotes, and elegant poster titling where a light, refined voice is desired. It can also work for invitations, packaging, and short-form display copy, particularly when set with generous tracking and comfortable leading to preserve its airy texture.
The tone is cool and poised—more gallery label than headline shout. Its hairline strokes and crisp slabs lend a contemporary, minimalist elegance, while the tall proportions add a quietly formal, editorial sensibility. Overall it feels calm, precise, and intentionally understated.
This font appears designed to deliver a modern slab-serif identity with a deliberately delicate stroke weight: crisp, square serifs for structure, paired with tall, clean letterforms for a refined, contemporary presence.
At text sizes the thin horizontals and small slab endings create a delicate, finely ruled sparkle across lines, making spacing and leading feel especially important. The design’s uniform thinness emphasizes outline and silhouette over stroke modulation, with a consistent, disciplined cadence across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
