A very slender italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed rectangular serifs and gently tapered terminals. Strokes are consistently fine, giving the design an airy color, while the italic construction introduces a smooth, continuous rhythm across words. Proportions feel open and somewhat extended, with generous counters and clear separation between stems, bowls, and serifs. Curves are clean and controlled, and the overall drawing keeps a restrained, precise geometry rather than a rough or distressed texture.
Best suited to editorial typography where a light, stylish italic voice is needed—magazine features, book typography, pull quotes, and refined titling. It can also work for upscale branding and formal printed pieces where delicacy is a feature rather than a limitation.
The tone is poised and literary, mixing old-style elegance with a crisp, modern sharpness from the square serifs. Its light presence reads sophisticated and quiet, suggesting refinement, formality, and a slightly academic sensibility rather than casual warmth.
The design appears intended to provide an italic slab serif that remains graceful and readable, pairing a minimal stroke weight with crisp, square serifs for clarity. It aims for a polished, contemporary editorial feel while retaining a classic typographic cadence in continuous text.
The italic angle is prominent enough to drive texture in running text, while the slab serifs keep letterforms anchored and recognizable. Numerals match the same delicate construction and maintain a consistent, understated presence suitable for text settings.
