A very thin, monoline slab serif with crisp, unbracketed terminals and a notably open, wide stance. Curves are drawn with flattened, squarish bowls (especially in O/C/G and the rounded lowercase), giving the face a geometric, engineered feel rather than a calligraphic one. Strokes keep an even weight throughout, with hairline horizontals and verticals meeting in clean right angles; serifs read as short, flat caps rather than heavy blocks. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and simple, single-storey forms (a, g), contributing to clarity and a steady, spacious rhythm in text.
Best suited to large-size settings where its hairline strokes and geometric slab details can be appreciated: headlines, display typography, brand marks, packaging, and contemporary editorial features. It can work for short text passages when set with ample size and comfortable tracking, but its very fine weight favors controlled reproduction and uncluttered layouts.
The overall tone is cool and contemporary: light, precise, and slightly futuristic. Its square-shouldered curves and restrained detailing suggest an architectural or technical sensibility, while the extreme fineness adds a refined, editorial edge.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif structure with a modern, geometric drawing style, prioritizing wide proportions, open counters, and crisp square terminals for a clean display voice. It aims for a distinctive, engineered look that stays orderly and legible while feeling light and contemporary.
Counters are generous and apertures stay open, helping shapes remain distinct despite the hairline weight. Numerals follow the same squarish-round logic with clean, minimal detailing, and the typography relies more on proportion and spacing than contrast for character.
