Designer: Alexander Roth→ neue Rasant is an analysis of a typeface utilized by the Singapore Land Transit Authority for its directional signage. The typeface style is based on a stiff grid with little to no space for optical settlements or any sort of harmonisation whatsoever. This approach can be seen as epitomic to an engineer's way of developing which provides paradoxically unorthodox solutions in a relatively orthodox system.
→ neue Rasant is a uniwidth design which means that the individual characters are occupying the very same amount of area throughout all weights and styles. By doing this of creating a type household turns out handy if one wishes to avoid unintentional line breaks or space consumption.
→ neue Rasant can be found in 5 weights varying from Thin to Bold. For the Italics the designer has the choice between
a conventional slant to the right or a non-traditional slant to the left. All weights and styles are equipped with arrows matching the specific weight's stroke thickness.
