A very light italic slab serif with unbracketed, square-ended serifs and clean, sharply cut terminals. Strokes are slender and even, with minimal contrast, giving the forms a crisp, airy texture on the page. The italic slant feels steady and measured rather than cursive, with open counters and generous spacing that keeps the rhythm calm and readable. Capitals are narrow and elegant, while the lowercase maintains a clear, bookish structure with a simple single-storey “g” and compact, tidy joins.
Well suited to editorial typography—magazines, books, essays, and cultured branding—where a light italic can provide elegant emphasis in text or serve as a distinctive voice for pull quotes and short headings. It will also work for invitations and refined packaging where a crisp italic slab serif adds character without heavy ornamentation.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting classic editorial typography with a modern, pared-back finish. Its lightness and steady italic angle create a poised, slightly formal voice suited to sophisticated, quiet emphasis rather than loud display.
The design appears intended to blend the authority and structure of slab serifs with a delicate, contemporary italic, delivering a crisp, understated personality for sophisticated text setting and subtle typographic contrast.
The numerals and capitals keep the same restrained, linear construction as the text, and the square serifs add a subtle architectural firmness that counterbalances the delicacy of the strokes.
