A very light slab-serif with monoline-like strokes and crisp, squared terminals that read as delicate “bracketless” slabs in many letters. Proportions are fairly classical with generous spacing and open counters, while curves (C, G, O, Q) stay clean and near-geometric. Several capitals show distinctive inline/striped detailing (notably B, D, E, F, H, I, K, L, P, R, T, X), creating a subtle ornamental rhythm without changing overall weight. The lowercase is straightforward and readable, with a single-storey a, compact ears and beaks, and tidy, narrow serifs that keep lines feeling precise at text sizes.
Works well for editorial titling, magazine-style pull quotes, and refined branding where a light, precise slab serif can add character without heavy contrast. The ornate inline capitals lend themselves to logotypes, invitations, and premium packaging, while the restrained lowercase supports longer lines of text when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The tone is elegant and lightly decorative, balancing editorial restraint with a hint of boutique sophistication. The hairline weight and inline accents suggest a fashion-forward, curated feel rather than purely utilitarian typography, while the slab structure keeps it grounded and composed.
Likely designed to deliver an ultra-light slab-serif voice with a built-in decorative option through inline capital forms, enabling both understated readability and a more bespoke display look within the same visual system.
Numerals are slender and consistent with the hairline construction, and the overall set maintains a calm vertical rhythm in running text. The inline treatment is more prominent in capitals, making mixed-case typography feel clean while all-caps settings become more stylized and attention-getting.
