A delicate slab-serif with thin, even strokes and crisp, square-ended serifs that read as small but insistent. The letterforms are upright and relatively narrow, with compact counters and a restrained, clean rhythm across lines of text. Curves are smooth and open (notably in C, G, O, and e), while joins and terminals stay sharp and controlled, giving the face a precise, lightly engineered look. Numerals follow the same light, pared-down construction, with clear shapes and minimal ornament.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazines, book interiors, and cultured long-form layouts where a light slab serif can add structure without heaviness. It can also support refined branding, packaging, and titling when used at larger sizes where the fine serifs and clean curves remain crisp.
The overall tone is polished and literary, balancing a classic bookish sensibility with a modern, airy restraint. Its fine serifs and tidy proportions lend a quiet sophistication that feels appropriate for premium, detail-oriented typography rather than loud display.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern slab-serif voice with a light touch: structured and authoritative in silhouette, yet minimal in stroke and detail. It aims for clarity and refinement, offering a distinctive serif presence while keeping the texture calm and understated.
In the text sample the thin strokes and small serifs create a bright page color and emphasize whitespace, making it feel best when given comfortable size and leading. The design maintains consistency between uppercase and lowercase, with a straightforward, readable structure and minimal eccentricity.
