A light, upright serif with slab-like, gently bracketed serifs and softened corners throughout. Strokes are even and low-contrast, with a steady rhythm and clear, open interior spaces. Proportions feel moderately wide with generous sidebearings, and the lowercase shows a double-storey “g” alongside simple, sturdy joins and short, controlled terminals. Figures are straightforward and readable, matching the same light, even color as the text.
Well-suited to continuous reading in editorial layouts, book interiors, and magazine text where an even, low-contrast texture is desired. It can also work for understated branding, packaging copy, and pull quotes when a gentle slab-serif character is needed without heavy weight.
The overall tone is quiet and bookish, balancing traditional serif cues with rounded, approachable detailing. It reads as composed and dependable rather than sharp or dramatic, giving text a calm, considerate voice.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary, softened take on slab-influenced serifs: sturdy enough for structure, light enough for a clean page color, and rounded to feel approachable in longer passages.
In text, the letterspacing and open counters help maintain clarity at smaller sizes, while the slabby serifs lend a subtle editorial presence. Roundness at corners and joins reduces harshness and supports a smooth line texture.
