A delicate serif with hairline-like strokes and crisp, bracketed serifs that stay unobtrusive. Proportions feel tall and lightly built, with generous counters and open apertures that keep the rhythm clear in text. Round letters are drawn with smooth, even curvature, while joins and terminals remain sharp and controlled. The lowercase shows a traditional structure (two-storey a and g) with long ascenders and restrained stroke modulation, producing a clean, measured texture across lines.
Well suited to magazine typography, book titles, pull quotes, and refined branding where elegance and lightness are desired. It also fits invitations and packaging that benefit from a poised, high-end serif voice, especially at display and larger text sizes where its fine details can breathe.
The overall tone is refined and quiet, with an airy, cultured presence suited to editorial settings. Its thin, precise detailing suggests sophistication and restraint rather than warmth, giving layouts a premium, considered feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, minimal take on a classic text serif: traditional letter construction paired with very fine strokes and disciplined serif handling to create a polished, premium reading and display texture.
The numerals and capitals read as formal and display-leaning, with ample whitespace around the forms; spacing appears generous, helping maintain clarity at larger sizes. The thin horizontals and fine serifs emphasize finesse, so contrast between thick and thin details is noticeable without becoming flashy.
