A very thin slab-serif with crisp, unbracketed terminals and a clean, open construction. Strokes are consistently light with an even rhythm, while the serifs read as small, flat finishing strokes that keep the outlines precise rather than ornate. Curves are smoothly drawn and fairly round (notably in C/O/Q and the lowercase bowls), paired with straight-sided verticals that create a calm, regular texture in text. The lowercase shows single-storey forms for a, g, and q, with long, straight stems and gently rounded joins; figures are similarly delicate, with simple, open shapes and a notably light presence on the baseline.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and identity work where delicacy and refinement are desirable. It can also work for short-form editorial text at comfortable sizes and generous leading, particularly in print-oriented layouts where its light color and crisp slabs can be appreciated.
The overall tone is quiet, polished, and modern, with a gallery-like restraint. Its hairline color and tidy slab details evoke an editorial, fashion-forward sensibility—more refined and architectural than warm or rustic.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary slab-serif voice with minimal gesture: thin, consistent strokes; clean, square-ended serifs; and streamlined, geometric curves that keep the overall impression modern and premium.
At display sizes the fine strokes and small serifs give a sharp, high-end look, while in paragraph settings the texture becomes very airy and spaced, emphasizing whitespace and precision. The design favors clarity and smoothness over strong stroke emphasis, producing a calm, understated voice.
