A light slab serif with generous spacing and a clean, steady rhythm. Strokes stay fairly even throughout, with minimal contrast and crisp, squared terminals that read as gently bracketed slabs rather than sharp wedges. Counters are open and round, curves are smooth, and joins stay tidy, giving the design a composed, readable texture in paragraphs. The overall impression is orderly and slightly condensed in detail but not tight, with clear shaping that keeps letterforms distinct at text sizes.
It performs well in continuous reading contexts such as book interiors, magazine articles, and report text where an even texture and clear word shapes are important. The light weight and controlled serifs also suit captions, pull quotes, and refined UI or document typography when a traditional serif voice is desired.
The tone is understated and editorial, projecting a quiet confidence associated with books, journals, and formal documents. Its light color and neat slabs feel classic without becoming ornate, creating a polite, measured voice suited to long-form reading.
Likely designed as a dependable slab serif for text, balancing classic proportions with restrained slab detailing to keep pages readable and calm. The emphasis appears to be on neutrality, consistency, and a smooth reading rhythm rather than decorative flair.
The numeral set appears similarly light and straightforward, matching the text color without calling attention to itself. In the sample paragraphs the font maintains an even baseline and consistent spacing, producing a smooth typographic “gray” that favors clarity over personality.
