A very thin, hairline slab serif with unbracketed, square-ended serifs and a clean, constructed rhythm. Strokes are consistently slender, with largely even weight across curves and straights, and open counters that keep the texture light on the page. Capitals feel spacious and measured, while lowercase forms stay simple and readable with a straightforward two-storey "g" and restrained terminals. Numerals follow the same minimalist, linear construction, giving the set a cohesive, finely drawn appearance.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other display settings where its airy hairline structure can stay intact. It also fits editorial layouts and cultural branding—programs, catalogs, and invitations—where a refined slab serif can add structure without adding heaviness.
The overall tone is poised and quiet, combining a classical bookish sensibility with a modern, minimal sharpness. Its hairline detailing reads as premium and carefully curated, lending an editorial, gallery-like calm rather than a loud or rustic slab presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimalist slab-serif voice at hairline weight: crisp, architectural letterforms with just enough serif structure to feel literary, while maintaining a contemporary lightness for high-end display typography.
Because the strokes and serifs are extremely fine, the face reads best when given room—generous point sizes, ample leading, and clean backgrounds help preserve its crispness. The slab details are present but understated, acting more as delicate accents than heavy anchors.
