Designers Note
Orbitron is a futuristic, geometric sans-serif typeface designed for sci-fi and tech-themed projects. Its clean lines, uniform stroke width, and square proportions evoke a digital, space-age aesthetic. Ideal for headlines, logos, or interface designs where a modern, high-tech feel is desired. The font includes multiple weights, enhancing its versatility while maintaining a consistent mechanical character.
Orbitron is a geometric sans-serif typeface intended for display purposes. It features four weights (light, medium, bold, and black), stylistic alternatives, small caps, and a ton of alternate glyphs. Orbitron was designed so that graphic designers in the future will have some alternative to typefaces like Eurostile or Bank Gothic. If you’ve ever seen a futuristic sci-fi movie, you may have noticed that all other fonts have been lost or destroyed in the apocalypse that led humans to flee earth. Only those very few geometric typefaces have survived to be used on spaceship exteriors, spacestation signage, monopolistic corporate branding, uniforms featuring aerodynamic shoulder pads, etc. Of course Orbitron could also be used on the posters for the movies portraying this inevitable future. It was initially published on the League of Movable Type.
Orbitron was remastered as a variable font in 2019. To contribute updates or file issues, see
