Prismax
A five-line humanist display face drawing on Rudolf Koch's Prisma (1931) and Akihiko Seki's Aki Lines (1970/72), built for headlines and large sizes.
About
Prismax continues a lineage of optical and multi-line alphabets that peaked in popularity during the 1970s, tracing its roots directly to Koch's Prisma. The graded parallel lines across each letterform give the face a layered, dimensional quality, and a set of interlocking ligatures adds further typographic character for letter pairs such as OC, HD and NNE. Available in a single Regular weight, it is a specialist tool for headline-scale display work rather than a general-purpose family.
Classification
A five-line inline display typeface designed exclusively for large sizes and headlines, following the tradition of optical and multi-line alphabets rooted in Koch's Prisma (1931). Its decorative striped construction places it firmly in the display category.
