A hairline, condensed serif with tall proportions and generous vertical emphasis. Strokes are consistently thin with minimal contrast, giving the letters a crisp, linear rhythm. Serifs are small and sharp, with occasional tapered terminals that add a slightly calligraphic edge without breaking the upright stance. Curves are narrow and controlled (notably in C, S, and O), and many glyphs feel stretched vertically, creating a quiet, high-fashion silhouette. Numerals and lowercase share the same slim, columnar construction, with open counters kept tight and tidy.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes and condensed build can be appreciated: magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, invitations, and large-format posters. It can work for short pull quotes or titling in editorial layouts, but benefits from ample size and comfortable spacing to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is refined and airy, reading as cultured and slightly dramatic due to its height and sparseness. It suggests editorial sophistication—more gallery invitation than newspaper—while its hairline weight adds a fragile, precious quality. The unusual, elongated forms lend a subtle decorative personality without becoming playful or kitschy.
Likely designed to offer a minimalist, modernized serif voice with a tall, narrow footprint—prioritizing elegance, verticality, and a distinctive silhouette over robust text heft. The construction aims for a clean, curated look that reads premium and contemporary while retaining serif cues.
Spacing and internal counters appear intentionally restrained, reinforcing a narrow, architectural texture in lines of text. The ampersand is notably simplified and geometric, aligning with the font’s minimal, modern-leaning interpretation of a serif style.
