At its essence, Ortank explores the confines of geometric shapes. Its goal is to ally the radically simple with some classical influence, coming from the lineale grotesque style. The typeface offers a set of letters which are readable in large paragraph format and other kinds of dense content. Its unique shapes (such as the ‘n’ and ‘u’) maintain legibility on a small scale without causing discomfort. The moment of magic occurs when using the display weight, where we have embraced a digitally radical approach: We have taken Ortank’s extreme sharpness and applied it in a unique way for each of member of the type family. Ortank also makes a strong statement with italics, displaying a dynamic and strongly slanted approach. Our vision harks back to ‘what italics used to be’—in other words, we felt that Ortank italic could embrace a different design, with its own quality. Instead of simply slanting the upright version, we decided to take a more independent approach—a tactic which we have employed successfully with several of our font families.
