Neotype is a type specimen book pairing Orbitron and Roboto, two faces that read as opposites. Orbitron is rigid and geometric, built for headlines and branding. Roboto is humanist and meant to disappear into body copy. Rather than using the usual display-plus-safe-body pairing, the book sets out to show that these opposites can coexist.
The layout system is built on circuit-board geometry instead of a neutral grid. That gives Orbitron's mechanical character a structural role in the page design rather than a purely decorative one, while Roboto carries the explanatory text without competing for attention.
