This serif typeface is drawn with extremely fine strokes and a strongly condensed proportion, producing tall, slender letterforms with generous internal white space. Serifs are small and sharp, with a restrained, classic construction and subtly flared terminals that keep the outlines crisp without feeling mechanical. The contrast is noticeable but not exaggerated, and the overall rhythm is calm and even, with narrow sidebearings and a vertical, composed stance. Lowercase forms keep a modest x-height relative to the long ascenders and descenders, and the numerals follow the same narrow, high-waisted, delicate styling.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and editorial layouts where a narrow, elegant serif can add height and sophistication without taking much horizontal space. It can also work for fashion or luxury branding and book jacket typography, especially at larger sizes where the fine detailing stays clear.
The overall tone is sophisticated and quiet, leaning toward editorial elegance rather than overt display. Its thin, elongated silhouettes suggest refinement and formality, with a slightly dramatic, fashion-forward feel that remains rooted in traditional serif typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice in a distinctly condensed, hairline idiom—prioritizing elegance, economy of width, and a refined printed texture for editorial and brand-facing typography.
In text, the condensed width and very fine strokes create a distinctive, airy texture, with capitals that read as statuesque and prominent. Curved letters (like C, G, O, and the lowercase a/e) maintain smooth, controlled bowls, while strokes remain consistently delicate across the set.
