Prisma Regular

Prisma is a striking multi-line display typeface designed by the legendary German typographer Rudolf Koch in 1931. Originally released through the Klingspor Type Foundry, it is a decorative inline derivative of Koch's famous geometric sans-serif, Kabel. The typeface is characterized by its intricate four-line structure which creates a vibrating, rhythmic texture that epitomizes the elegance and geometric spirit of the Art Deco movement.

Because of its complex internal lines, Prisma is most effective when used at large sizes where its detail can be fully appreciated. It remains one of the most iconic examples of modernist typography from the early 20th century, frequently employed to convey a sense of high fashion, architectural precision, or retro-futuristic style. Its unique construction allows it to stand out in high-impact visual communications such as magazine mastheads and classic poster designs.
