A very light, upright text face with an eclectic serif treatment that mixes hairline-like joins with chunky, slabby terminals. Stems are mostly straight and monoline in feel, but the design introduces sharp triangular spikes, small bracketed feet, and occasional curved entry strokes that give the outlines a slightly calligraphic cadence. Capitals are narrow and airy with prominent, sometimes asymmetric terminal decisions (notably on diagonals), while lowercase forms show a restrained x-height and lively details such as looped/curled bowls and open apertures. Numerals follow the same logic, with delicate curves contrasted by squared-off or flared endpoints, creating a distinctive, intentionally irregular rhythm in text.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and title treatments where its unusual slab/flare hybrids can be appreciated. It can also work for editorial or book-cover typography when a classic serif feel is desired with an offbeat twist, and for branding applications that aim for a cultivated yet unconventional personality.
The overall tone is quirky and bookish—part old-style editorial, part eccentric display—suggesting a voice that feels both refined and playfully unconventional. The sharp serifs and unexpected terminal shapes add a hint of whimsy and vintage theatricality without becoming fully decorative.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif skeleton through unexpected slab-like terminals and pointed, stylized details. It aims for recognizability and character—more expressive than a standard text slab—while retaining enough structure to remain usable in longer lines.
In paragraph settings the font maintains a consistent color thanks to its thin strokes, but the standout personality comes from the angular terminals and slab-like feet that punctuate word shapes. The distinctive uppercase construction and spiky diagonals make it especially recognizable at larger sizes, while smaller sizes may emphasize its idiosyncratic detailing rather than neutrality.
