A slender italic serif with gently tapered strokes, soft entry/exit terminals, and a smooth, continuous rhythm that leans clearly to the right. Serifs are delicate and understated, with a mix of small wedges and curved, calligraphic finishing strokes rather than blunt slabs. The forms favor rounded bowls and open counters; ascenders and descenders feel relatively long, giving the face an airy vertical presence. Overall spacing reads even and calm, while the italic construction adds a flowing, handwriting-adjacent texture in words.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an italic voice is desired—pull quotes, intros, captions, and elegant short passages. It can also support premium branding, packaging, and invitation work where a refined, gently calligraphic serif adds personality without becoming decorative.
The tone is elegant and literary, suggesting refinement and a measured, thoughtful voice. Its light, graceful movement and subtle calligraphic cues feel more expressive than strictly utilitarian, while still remaining composed and readable.
The design appears intended as a contemporary italic serif that balances classical, pen-influenced terminals with clean, simplified construction. It aims to provide an elegant, expressive texture for reading and display-accent roles while maintaining overall typographic restraint.
Uppercase shapes lean toward simplified, modernized proportions, and the numerals follow the same italic, tapered logic for a consistent color in mixed text. Curved letters show smooth joins and restrained modulation, producing a clean texture without dramatic contrast shifts.
