A very slender, condensed italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed rectangular serifs and a clean, low-contrast stroke model. The forms are tall and narrow with generous internal space and a steady rightward slant, creating a light, vertical rhythm. Curves are drawn with smooth, even tension, while terminals and serifs stay squared-off and precise, giving the face a sharp, engineered finish despite its delicate weight.
Best suited to editorial typography where elegance and compression are useful—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and book-jacket titling—especially at medium to large sizes. It can also work for formal stationery or invitations when a slender italic voice is desired, but it benefits from comfortable tracking and ample leading due to its fine strokes.
The overall tone feels poised and literary, combining an old-style italic flow with a cool, architectural crispness. Its airy weight and narrow stance read as sophisticated and slightly dramatic, lending a fashion-editorial or classic bookish flavor rather than a casual or utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic slab-serif voice that is both refined and space-efficient, pairing crisp, square serifs with a graceful slanted cadence. It aims for a distinctive, high-contrast-in-feeling silhouette through proportion and detail rather than heavy stroke modulation.
Ascenders and descenders are notably long, and the italic construction emphasizes pointed joins and tapered diagonals, which increases the sense of speed and refinement. Numerals and capitals maintain the same narrow, high-waisted proportions, keeping lines of mixed content visually consistent.
