40 Degrees
Kilotype · Selma Losch · 2022
A geometric display typeface by Selma Losch in which letters are tilted 40 degrees and rendered as iridescent colour mosaics across 11 predefined palettes.
About
Designed by Selma Losch and released in 2022, the typeface takes a geometric skeleton and rotates each letterform 40 degrees, fragmenting the shapes into coloured mosaic segments. Eleven predefined colour palettes shift the tone from ethereal to vivid, while a monochrome Solid style functions as a fallback in apps without colour-font support. The font uses both CPAL/COLR and SVG tables for broad compatibility and is distributed under Kilotype's Concept Font programme, free for individuals and studios under €100k annual revenue.
Classification
A geometric display font whose letterforms are rotated 40 degrees and rendered as multicolour iridescent mosaics; the decorative, colour-font treatment and highly specific visual concept place it firmly in the display category.
