A light slab serif with fine, even strokes and crisp, squared terminals. Serifs are small but clearly present and generally bracketed, giving joins a gentle, controlled transition. The design favors open, rounded bowls and generous apertures, with a tidy rhythm and restrained contrast. Uppercase proportions feel classical and balanced, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, readable construction with simple two-storey forms and consistent spacing that reads cleanly in text.
Well-suited to body copy in print and long-form editorial settings where a light slab serif texture can add structure without looking heavy. It can also serve in understated branding, headings, and captions when a calm, refined voice is desired, especially at moderate sizes where its fine details remain clear.
The overall tone is quiet and polished, projecting a composed, literary character rather than a loud or decorative one. Its light touch and neat slab detailing lend an editorial, slightly traditional feel that still stays neutral and contemporary in flow.
The design appears intended as a plain, dependable slab serif with a lighter-than-typical footprint—aiming for readability and a measured, professional tone while adding just enough serif presence to distinguish it from a sans.
In the text sample, the slender strokes and compact slab serifs create a crisp line without heavy texture, and the numerals appear similarly light and open, supporting a cohesive page color. The ampersand and punctuation match the same restrained geometry, reinforcing a workmanlike consistency.
