A hairline outline serif with monoline construction and open counters formed by a single, continuous contour. Letterforms are tall and slightly condensed in feeling, with crisp, tapered terminals and sharp, triangular serifs that read as engraved rather than bracketed. Curves are smooth and controlled (notably in O, C, and G), while joins stay clean and minimal, keeping the overall texture light and spacious. Numerals follow the same outline logic, with slender curves and clear silhouettes designed for display clarity rather than dense text color.
Best suited to display applications such as magazine mastheads, brand wordmarks, boutique packaging, event invitations, and poster headlines. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or section headers where the airy outline effect is an intentional stylistic cue.
The font projects a refined, high-fashion tone—light, poised, and ornamental without becoming overly flourished. Its outline-only strokes give it a luminous, architectural presence that feels premium and gallery-like, suited to settings where subtlety and elegance are the point.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxury outline take on classical serif proportions—prioritizing silhouette elegance and negative space over strong text color. The restrained detailing and consistent monoline contour suggest a focus on versatile, upscale display typography rather than body-copy performance.
At larger sizes the contours read crisp and luxurious, while at smaller sizes the interior whitespace and thin outlines can visually soften, making it better as a headline than a workhorse text face. The rhythm is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive set for titling and short phrases.
