Our goal is to connect both typographic cultures and share our knowledge of calligraphy, sketching, exploration and type design.

Typefaces and the technologies used to bring them to life on screen are already incredibly advanced and have been mastered by many designers, but we've made the decision to inject strong personalities, into our type projects. However, we are trying to step away, as far as possible, from projects in which the designer's personality enters into the work.

We hope that our website gives you a glimpse of a future where type design fully embraces digital. Of course, this is just the beginning, and we are just two explorers finding our way in a new world of type, deeply passionate about creating a new type family. We believe that our website demonstrates the passion we have for our work, through typefaces, work in progress, and experimentation.

The Eiger village of Grindelwald in the Bernese Oberland lies embedded in a welcoming and green hollow, surrounded by a commanding mountainscape with the Eiger north face and the Wetterhorn. This mountainscape and the numerous lookout points and activities make Grindelwald one of the most popular and cosmopolitan holiday and excursion destinations in Switzerland, and the largest ski resort in the Jungfrau region.

The symbol of the «world’s smallest metropolis» is the “Jet d’eau” – a fountain with a 140-metre-high water jet at the periphery of Lake Geneva. Most of the large hotels and many restaurants are situated on the right-hand shore of the lake. The old town, the heart of Geneva with the shopping and business quarter, holds sway over the left-hand shore.

The Matterhorn and Switzerland are inseparably linked to each other. The pyramid shaped colossus of a mountain, which is very difficult to climb, is said to be the most-photographed mountain in the world. The Klein-Matterhorn ("Little Matterhorn"), which can be reached via a funicular, lies adjacent to the Matterhorn.
A sans-serif type family flirting with the confine of pure geometry
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.
