Ori is a geometric typeface inspired by paper folding. The name Ori, which means fold in Japanese, comes from the word origami. It consists of a grid system structured in square format from origami paper with diagonal fold lines.The letterforms are constructed from three geometric shapes: square for paper, isosceles right triangle for fold, and rectangle for counters. The relationship between these components creates a high contrast between thick and thin strokes. This typeface can be used for any format such as magazine or childrenβs book to create a systematic and playful feeling.
- It is important to keep the typeface readable and identifiable in a small size.
- I was able show cohesiveness in my modular system.
