A very slender serif design with crisp, unbracketed slab-like terminals that read as small rectangular caps on stems and arms. Strokes stay largely monoline, producing an airy color and generous counters; curves are smooth and controlled, while joins remain sharp and architectural. Proportions lean tall with relatively long extenders, and spacing feels open, giving the alphabet a measured, delicate rhythm. In text, the thin horizontals and fine serifs create a precise, lightly structured texture that stays calm rather than busy.
Best suited to display roles—headlines, magazine titling, fashion and beauty branding, and refined packaging—where its thin strokes and crisp terminals can be appreciated. It can work for short text passages when set large with comfortable tracking and strong contrast against the background, but it will be most distinctive in spacious editorial layouts.
The overall tone is refined and quietly formal, with a contemporary, gallery-like clarity. Its hairline construction and squared finishing details suggest sophistication and restraint, leaning toward luxury and editorial polish rather than warmth or casualness.
The design appears intended to merge a modern, minimalist hairline construction with the assertiveness of squared slab terminals, yielding a serif that feels both classic in posture and contemporary in finish. Its open spacing and controlled geometry prioritize elegance and clarity in prominent, high-end settings.
Capitals have a stately, high-contrast-in-spirit silhouette despite the largely even stroke weight, with small slab terminals providing definition at display sizes. Numerals are similarly light and graceful, with rounded forms that match the smooth curve logic seen in letters like C, O, and S.
