A very slender, condensed slab serif with crisp, unbracketed terminals and a clean, even stroke rhythm. The letterforms are tall and lightly built, with small but firm slab serifs that read as straight, squared-off caps on stems. Curves (C, O, e, g) are narrow and controlled, and the overall construction feels precise rather than calligraphic. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same taut verticality, producing a tight, airy texture in continuous text.
This face suits editorial headlines, book and journal titling, and other display settings where a refined, space-saving serif is helpful. It can work well for invitations, cultural posters, and brand wordmarks that want a thin, structured serif presence, especially at larger sizes where the delicate strokes remain clear.
The font conveys a poised, bookish elegance—quietly formal and slightly old-world in tone. Its thin vertical emphasis and restrained details suggest sophistication and editorial polish, with a delicate presence that feels measured rather than showy.
The design appears intended to deliver a highly condensed, lightly weighted slab serif that feels classic and composed while conserving horizontal space. Its squared serifs and disciplined geometry aim for clarity and a distinctive vertical elegance in display typography.
In the text sample, the condensed proportions create a high-information line with noticeable vertical cadence, while the small slabs help keep shapes distinct at display sizes. The forms stay consistent across cases, and the overall impression is clean and orderly with minimal ornamentation.
