Orbita
Custom Typeface
Orbita Display was designed by Melbourne Branding Designer Madeline Denys for the well versed typographer wanting a polished workhorse for editorial work in publication design for Melbourne's high end property market.
With its tall x-height, symmetric contrast, and narrow proportions, the elegant face is inspired by traditional 18th Century stone carving seen on gravestones of that era.
Tailor a short course
or workshop to suit
the needs of your designers.
Bringing a holistic understanding of type design to your designers will improve studio outcomes and is about much more than team building.
Our twenty years of professional experience teaching the creatives in Melbourne's leading studios speaks for itself.
Make a huge difference
OSNS works directly in house with leading studios, teaching design teams the methodology to improve both efficiency and quality when working with or creating their own custom typography. Such a wise investment saves Creative Directors the overheads and headache of rehiring and is a great morale booster to lift the spirits and relieve studio pressure well known to any creative professional
In today's rapidly changing world of high design, audiences have become typographically aware. Upskilling designers in house means that increasingly, Agencies and Studios save valuable time and money that they traditionally spent outsourcing type and lettering to expensive agencies.

We hired Veronica to spend two days working with our design team. They utilse the skills alot to design T Shirts, and it was important that they understood the history of the writing style, and the many styles, to prevent them locking into only one style which will date. They use their skills for a wide range of apparel, and we no longer need to hire freelancers.

A major requirement of our design team is rolling out branding collateral for Melbourne Property Developments. Their Typographic Palette was restricted. Veronica spent two days with our team of ten designers, teaching them how Type Design Works. I was surprised at how quickly some amazing Display Faces came into production. While none of them aspire to becoming professional type designers, that is not the point. They are all using type with greater respect and consideration, and it has made a huge difference to their design solutions. Thankyou Veronica !
