This typeface features high-contrast strokes with slender hairlines and subtly swelling, flared terminals that act like soft serifs rather than abrupt brackets. Curves are smooth and open, while verticals stay clean and upright, producing a calm rhythm with clear thick–thin modulation. The proportions feel moderately narrow-to-neutral with generous counters, and the lowercase shows a traditional structure with a two-storey “g,” a light, delicate “e,” and lightly tapered joins. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with graceful curves and fine finishing strokes that keep the overall color light on the page.
Well suited to editorial design, book titling, and magazine typography where a light, elegant texture is desirable. It can also support premium branding, invitations, and short to medium text passages in print or high-resolution digital settings, particularly when ample size and spacing preserve its delicate details.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a quiet elegance that reads as classical rather than ornamental. Its thin hairlines and flared endings give it a poised, slightly calligraphic sophistication—formal, but not severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast letterforms by replacing hard serif structures with tapered, flared endings. This approach emphasizes grace and readability while keeping the page color light and sophisticated.
At text sizes the hairlines and thin cross-strokes become a defining feature, giving paragraphs a bright, airy texture. The distinct flaring at stroke ends provides character and directionality without the heaviness of fully developed serifs, supporting a gentle, flowing word shape.
