Information

Oroban, the witchweed.

Oroban is a type family inspired by the different kind of flowers and plants belonging to the Orobanchaceae family. Thus the different style’s names, Masuria, Hermonthica & Elegans. These are the parasitic plants which bring woe to whole farming cultures. Beautifully shaped in their wide variety of colours and forms. The Oroban font-family takes a deep fall into this inspiring variety of plants to extract some of their very details and mix them into letter-forms.
The shapes are balanced with various kind of weight pressed along the ductus: linking the glyphs design to a historical hand-style writing.
