We did try an option with the ’l’ being in line with the ’i’, and wondered if being too technical and precise took away from the personality of it? Our initial thoughts were that the slight variation in angle alignment was a good thing. Maybe it is too distracting when not aligned?
without knowing the purpose or application, I love the concept.
What would make it look great would be if you work it out from a grid of triangles, so all the whitespace and letterforms work together and everything is symetrical and balanced.
I want to see it at the final size(s) it will be shown at - it looks a bit odd at that large size, but without any context, I don’t have any reaction other than “yes, there are some parallel lines in there and the text is illustrating the word.”

I like it!
I would maybe shorten the ’l’ so that the angles on the top left of the ’i’ line up with those of the ’l’.
Does that make any sense?

Luke - that does make sense.

Could be - I’d have to see it aligned...
I like to err on the side of lining things up - makes it seem deliberate.

what’s the context and application? give a better idea of what you’re trying to achieve.

“what’s the context and application? give a better idea of what you’re trying to achieve.”
