Type Love: Prism & International

This style of open, lin­ear dis­play type is noth­ing new, but I’m always drawn to the mod­ern, graphic pres­ence it adds to a design. This week I hap­pened to come across two new releases in this style that each have some inter­est­ing details.

International, by Yes Please, comes in one style which fea­tures upper­case and low­er­case let­ter­forms and wide range of OpenType fea­tures, includ­ing styl­is­tic alter­nates. According to their MyFonts pro­file, the type­face has been used in work for Nike Women’s Training, Nike Running, Nike Sportswear, Target, Showtime.

Prism, by Stereotypes, was inspired by the sketches of Rudolf Koch for Prisma and the pro­por­tions of Avant Garde by Herb Lubalin. This type­face fea­tures upper­case let­ter­forms and comes in ten dif­fer­ent weights, from ExtraLight to Black.
