A very slender slab serif with crisp, unbracketed terminals and a clean, linear construction. Strokes are consistently thin with minimal modulation, and the serifs read as fine rectangular caps that give the letterforms a precise, architectural finish. Round characters are drawn with smooth, near-circular bowls, while verticals stay straight and evenly weighted, creating an open, measured rhythm. The overall spacing feels generous, and the forms keep a tidy, controlled silhouette in both uppercase and lowercase.
This font is well suited to display sizes for magazine titles, fashion and lifestyle layouts, premium branding, and packaging where a light, precise serif can signal elegance. It can also work for short subheads and pull quotes in print or high-resolution digital settings where the thin strokes remain intact.
The tone is elegant and contemporary, with a light, poised presence that suggests boutique editorial design rather than heavy utility. Its hairline structure and sharp finishing details convey sophistication and restraint, producing a quiet, premium feel.
The design appears intended to merge modern, geometric clarity with the structured finish of slab serifs, delivering a refined display voice that feels both classic and current. It prioritizes clean outlines, consistent rhythm, and an elevated, minimal aesthetic over ruggedness or dense text settings.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “g” with a looping descender, a lightly curved “y” tail, and numerals that keep the same thin, refined stroke character. The delicate weight means the design reads best when it has enough size and contrast against the background to preserve its fine serifs and stems.
