A delicate slab-serif with very thin, nearly monolinear strokes and crisp, square-ended serifs. The letterforms feel tall and lightly built, with generous internal space and open counters that keep the texture bright on the page. Curves are smooth and restrained, while joins and terminals stay clean and sharply defined, giving the design a precise, engineered finish. Numerals follow the same light, elegant construction, with simple, readable forms that maintain an even rhythm alongside the text.
Well suited to editorial contexts where a light, refined slab can add structure without visual weight—such as magazine typography, book covers, and cultured branding. It also works effectively for headlines and display text where its crisp serifs and open forms can be appreciated.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, combining a literary, editorial polish with an airy lightness. Its crisp slabs add a subtle sense of structure and authority without becoming heavy, producing a poised, modern-classical impression.
The design appears intended to deliver a slender, elegant slab-serif voice—prioritizing clarity and typographic poise while keeping the overall footprint light and contemporary. The square serifs act as a quiet signature, adding definition and rhythm rather than mass.
In the sample text the spacing and stroke delicacy create a pale typographic color, so it benefits from comfortable sizes and generous leading. The slab serifs provide clear baselines and word shapes, helping maintain order even with the very light stroke weight.
