Hatch Apex

Premium motorsport restraint: clean extended geometry, one confident stroke, flat terminals, tight even spacing and excellent numerals. Proportion, spacing and numerals carry the identity; there is deliberately no signature gimmick.

Premium motorsport restraint: clean extended geometry, one confident stroke, flat terminals, tight even spacing and excellent numerals. Proportion, spacing and numerals carry the identity; there is deliberately no signature gimmick.

  • Display: Regular, Bold and Black, each upright and italic (a true drawn italic at 12 degrees).
  • Text: 0.8 of Display width with softer radii and larger sidebearings, for captions at 20 px and up.
  • Mono: Regular and Bold at a 640 advance, slashed zero, slab feet on I i l j 1.
  • Timing numerals: tabular figures, a flagged 1, a straight-blade 7, an open 4. ss01 is a slashed zero; pnum and tnum switch spacing; calt closes the colon, point and comma between digits so 0:42.317 reads as one reading.
  • Ligatures only where functional: -> <- => <= >= !=.
  • Use for wordmarks, tags, headline cards, timing and data overlays. Not for lowercase paragraphs in Display, or anything under 20 px in Display.
  • Original outlines drawn for Hatching Point. Internal brand typeface.
