A delicate text serif with slender, tapered strokes and crisp hairline serifs that read as lightly bracketed in many joins. Proportions are compact and vertically oriented, with generous interior space and open apertures that keep forms from feeling cramped. Curves are smooth and controlled, while terminals stay sharp and understated; overall rhythm is even and measured, with a distinctly light typographic color.
Well suited to editorial typography where a light, elegant serif is desired—pull quotes, magazine features, and refined book typography at comfortable text sizes. It can also serve for formal stationery and invitation work where a subtle, classical voice is needed without heavy ornament.
The tone is refined and literary, suggesting a quiet, cultured elegance rather than display drama. Its thin strokes and clean spacing give it an airy, understated sophistication suited to formal, editorial contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional reading serif rendered with a notably light touch, emphasizing clarity through open counters and careful restraint in detailing. Its overall aim seems to be an elegant, contemporary take on classic text-serif proportions, optimized for calm, high-end typography.
Capitals appear stately and restrained, pairing well with similarly restrained lowercase that maintains clarity through open counters and simple, unshowy detailing. Numerals match the lightness and maintain a consistent, contemporary text rhythm without becoming ornate.
