A very thin, monolinear slab serif with crisp, square, unbracketed terminals and generous internal whitespace. The design leans wide with a steady, even rhythm, pairing round, open bowls with flat horizontal finishing strokes. Serifs read as small rectangular caps rather than heavy wedges, keeping the overall color light while still clearly serifed. Curves are smooth and near-geometric, while verticals stay straight and clean, producing a precise, high-end texture in lines of text.
Works best for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where a light, refined slab serif can read large and breathe. It can also suit premium packaging and cultural or fashion-oriented materials, especially when set with comfortable tracking and line spacing.
The tone is elegant and restrained, with an airy, contemporary feel. Its delicate strokes and crisp slabs suggest sophistication and clarity rather than warmth or rusticity, giving it an editorial, gallery-like presence.
The design appears intended to modernize the slab serif idea by reducing weight and contrast while preserving crisp, square-ended serifs for structure. It aims for a clean, spacious reading texture and a contemporary, upscale voice suitable for editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the thin strokes create a pale typographic color that benefits from ample size and spacing. The numerals and capitals maintain the same clean, minimal slab treatment, reinforcing a consistent, architectural personality across text and display settings.
