A very thin, monoline slab serif with unbracketed, square-ended serifs and a clean, drawn-with-a-pen regularity. Stems and horizontals maintain an even, hairline weight, while round letters stay smooth and near-circular, giving the design a geometric backbone. Proportions are open and lightly spaced, with small, crisp terminals and a consistent baseline rhythm. The numerals are similarly delicate and streamlined, matching the text weight without adding contrast or optical heft.
Best suited to display applications where the fine strokes can remain intact: magazine headlines, luxury branding, cosmetic and fragrance packaging, and refined logotypes. It can work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing, but long text blocks will appear very light and may need careful production conditions to preserve detail.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, leaning more toward fashion and editorial elegance than traditional book warmth. Its hairline construction and crisp slabs convey a modern, premium feel—poised, minimal, and slightly architectural.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern hairline serif look with the added character of crisp, square slabs—combining geometric clarity with a delicate, high-end presence for editorial and brand-forward typography.
At larger sizes the thin strokes and sharp slab terminals read as intentional and sophisticated, but the extreme lightness creates a fragile color in paragraphs. The crisp joins and squared serifs give it a distinctive signature compared with hairline Didone styles, keeping the look more restrained and contemporary.
