A delicate serif with a strongly hairline overall color and crisp, sharp terminals. The proportions feel classical and balanced, with moderately narrow capitals and rounded bowls that stay open and clean at text sizes. Serifs are fine and tapered rather than bracket-heavy, and joins are handled with a restrained, contemporary smoothness. The lowercase shows a gentle, bookish rhythm with slightly calligraphic curves and subtle stroke modulation, while numerals and capitals keep a composed, formal stance.
Well-suited to magazine typography, book interiors, and other editorial layouts where a refined serif voice is desired. It can also support premium branding and formal materials such as invitations or packaging, especially when paired with generous spacing and high-quality printing.
The tone is poised and understated, leaning toward editorial sophistication rather than display exuberance. Its thin strokes and precise finishing give it a premium, fashion-forward feel, while the traditional skeleton keeps it grounded and readable.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, elegant take on a conventional text serif: light in color, meticulously finished, and optimized for a calm, upscale reading experience in headlines and carefully set text.
In the samples, the light stroke weight and fine serifs create a lot of white space, producing an airy page texture. Curved letters (like C, G, S, and the lowercase a/e) show careful shaping that reads smooth and controlled, with a distinctly refined, high-end character.
