A delicate slab-serif with hairline strokes and crisp, lightly bracketed rectangular serifs. Letterforms are open and airy, with smooth curves and a restrained, even rhythm that reads cleanly in both capitals and lowercase. The lowercase shows traditional proportions and a straightforward construction, while numerals follow the same thin, precise treatment with clear, uncluttered shapes. Overall spacing feels generous, emphasizing a light, elegant texture on the page.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a refined slab-serif voice is desired. It can also support tasteful branding, packaging, and formal printed pieces where an elegant, lightly structured serif texture helps convey sophistication without heaviness.
The font projects a quiet, cultivated tone—more literary than industrial—mixing classic serif formality with a gentle, contemporary lightness. Its thin strokes and measured shapes create a composed, understated voice suited to thoughtful, polished communication.
Likely designed to offer a clean, dependable slab-serif foundation with an elevated, high-finesse feel—combining the clarity and sturdiness implied by slab terminals with the grace of very light strokes for contemporary editorial use.
The combination of slab serifs and very fine stroke weight gives it a distinctive “modern classic” presence: structured and stable at the terminals, yet visually light in the stems and curves. In longer text, the thin hairlines create a pale typographic color that benefits from comfortable sizes and sufficient contrast in reproduction.
