A very thin, hairline serif with crisp, square slab-like terminals and clean, unbracketed joins. Strokes maintain an even, low-contrast rhythm, with generous spacing and open counters that keep the texture light on the page. Curves are drawn with smooth, controlled arcs (notably in O/C/G and the numerals), while horizontals and serifs read as precise, flat-ended strokes. The overall impression is wide-set and neatly engineered, balancing delicate lines with assertive, rectangular serifs.
This font is well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and short editorial settings where its hairline construction and crisp slabs can be appreciated. It can also work for branding, packaging, and titling systems that want a modern, high-end serif voice with a precise, architectural finish.
The tone is refined and composed, with a fashion/editorial polish that feels contemporary rather than nostalgic. Its airy color and sharp slab accents convey a calm, confident sophistication—more gallery-label and magazine masthead than rustic or utilitarian slab-serif warmth.
The design appears intended to merge a delicate, hairline drawing style with the assertive structure of slab serifs, producing a refined display serif that stays modern and controlled. Its wide-set proportions and open shapes suggest an emphasis on elegance and legibility in larger sizes rather than dense body text texture.
In text, the thin strokes and prominent slab terminals create a distinctive sparkle, especially around ascenders, caps, and punctuation. The design favors clarity through openness and spacing, while the hairline weight makes it best read at sizes where its fine details can breathe.
