A delicate serif with softly bracketed, slab-leaning serifs and rounded terminals throughout. Strokes are thin and even, with open counters and a calm, measured rhythm that reads cleanly at text sizes. Proportions feel comfortably wide with generous sidebearings, and the lowercase shows a traditional structure with a two-storey “g,” modest ascenders, and smooth joins. Numerals are similarly light and curvy, with noticeable roundness in forms like 2, 3, and 8 that reinforces the typeface’s gentle, polished texture.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an elegant, lightly textured serif is desired—book interiors, magazine features, pull quotes, and refined web articles. It can also serve in invitations and boutique branding where a classic voice with softened edges helps maintain approachability.
The overall tone is refined and literary, balancing classic book-type cues with a softer, friendlier edge from the rounded endings. It feels composed and airy rather than formal or severe, lending a quiet sophistication to paragraphs and titles alike.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading experience with reduced sharpness—using rounded terminals and slab-like serifs to create an inviting, contemporary-polished take on traditional letterforms. Its light, open construction suggests an emphasis on elegance and clarity in longer settings.
Distinctive details include a curling tail on the capital Q and small, rounded finials that keep the serif presence from feeling sharp. The thin weight and open shapes create a bright page color, while the consistent rounding gives the design a cohesive, slightly whimsical restraint.
