A very thin, hairline slab-serif with tall proportions and generous vertical reach. Strokes stay nearly monolinear, with small, square-ended slab serifs that read crisp and unbracketed. The letterforms are open and lightly drawn, with smooth curves, controlled terminals, and a quiet, consistent rhythm; spacing feels measured, letting the delicate strokes breathe. Uppercase shapes are stately and elongated, while the lowercase maintains a similarly vertical posture with slender ascenders and descenders and compact, tidy details in counters and joins.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, magazine spreads, lookbooks, brand marks, and premium packaging where its slender structure can be appreciated. It also works for short editorial subheads and pull quotes when set with comfortable tracking and line spacing, rather than dense text blocks.
The overall tone is poised and refined, leaning toward a fashion/editorial sensibility. Its extreme lightness and clean construction give it a modern, high-end feel, more about atmosphere and sophistication than forceful presence.
The design appears intended as a high-fashion, modern slab-serif display face that combines the precision of unbracketed slabs with an ultra-light, elongated silhouette. It prioritizes elegance, whitespace, and a quiet typographic voice in prominent settings.
Because the strokes are so fine, the design reads best when given ample size and contrast against the background. Numerals and punctuation match the same delicate, linear construction, supporting a cohesive, minimal look across mixed-case settings.
