Otta, a new multi-script typeface

As a sensitive counter-response to the advance of AI in all fields, Otta aims to vibrate on a profoundly human frequency. Its gentle, organic tone seeks a return to the human sense, to the delicacy of the artisanal and the handmade. Otta has been carefully drawn under a criterion of rhythm that aims to synthesize both calligraphic and typographic forms suitable for continuous reading. Like other typefaces in the PampaType library, Otta is also the result of an exploration of horizontal contrast in type design, this time following the example of scripts that use it as part of their tradition, such as Arabic and Greek.

Otta is an ambitious multi-script family, it was specifically designed by Francisco to compose his own book on typography “Hacer y Componer” (‘Making and Composing’) — a must-read for type lovers, in which he needed to combine on a single page various scripts in a harmonious way. This first edition of Otta includes complete Arabic, extended Cyrillic (with Bulgarian, Macedonian, Serbian, Ukrainian), complete modern & ancient Greek (with archaic letters, Coptic, Nubian), and Latin pan-Unicode (with IPA–International Phonetic Alphabet, PanAfrican, Pinyin, Vietnamese), emojis and more.
