A highly condensed serif with hairline-thin stems, long vertical emphasis, and crisp, bracketed serifs. Curves are drawn with a controlled, slightly calligraphic tension, giving bowls and rounds a poised, oval feeling. Capitals are tall and stately with narrow widths and delicate terminals, while the lowercase maintains a similarly slender rhythm with fine entry/exit strokes and modestly sized counters. Figures are equally light and narrow, with smooth, continuous curves and minimal ornamentation.
Best suited to display and editorial typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book and album covers, and upscale branding where a slender, refined serif can set a sophisticated mood. It can also work for short blocks of text at comfortable sizes with ample leading, especially in print or high-resolution environments.
The overall tone is sophisticated and editorial, combining a classical bookish sensibility with a fashion-like, high-contrast delicacy. Its narrow, airy texture reads as formal and intentional, projecting restraint rather than exuberance. The impression is polished and quiet, suited to contexts where subtlety and refinement are desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice in an exceptionally narrow, elegant silhouette, prioritizing vertical grace and typographic finesse. It balances traditional serif construction with a distinctly modern, runway-like thinness to create a high-end, attention-directing texture.
Because the strokes are extremely thin, the design’s character depends on clean reproduction and sufficient size; at smaller settings the delicate hairlines and tight apertures may soften or lose definition. The condensed proportions create a strong vertical rhythm and allow dense headlines without feeling heavy.
