OTR Grotesk is the result of a desire to deepen the understanding of typographic fundamentals. Since drawing the first letterforms in 2019, it has evolved into a complete variable typeface family and has since become the house typeface of Atelier Pol.

The typeface is intended to be a workhorse that performs well in a broad range of applications.
The tall x-height, generally wide glyphs, and loose spacing allow for great readability at small sizes.
The initial design of the typeface on the other hand experimented with reducing gaps of white space between characters to look tight in display sizes as well as logo design.
