APN Ochra

Introducing APN Ochra: a slender, sun-baked display and titling companion to APN Chora, with a subtle glyphic touch and a nod to earlier Quattrocento Florentine letterforms, illustrating the cyclical nature of cultural revivals.

Modulated rather than monolinear, APN Ochra marries inscriptional traits with the broad-nib logic and pronounced diagonal stress of APN Chora. A lowered x-height permits generous ascenders, while subtle irregularities lend natural elegance. The capitals echo imperial Roman proportions, while the lowercase draws from open, rounded Renaissance forms, and the italic employs a bi-angular slant for gentle dynamism.

Though conceived for titling and display, APN Ochra is fully equipped for versatility: it includes lowercase, small caps, multiple figure sets, fractions, stylistic sets and alternates, fine ligatures, case-sensitive forms, mathematical symbols, and more—all with extensive Latin-script language support.

APN Ochra’s distinctive, expressive voice brings clarity, contrast, and grace to headlines, logomarks, and identity work, extending the APN Chora family while remaining true to its principles.
