Typography
Typography reinforces the Origin brand voice and improves readability across all touchpoints. Origin uses a single typeface — Inter — across marketing, product, and documentation, delivering a cohesive voice from bold headlines to dense security dashboards.
Primary Typeface
Section titled “Primary Typeface”Inter is a variable sans-serif designed for screens. Its tall x-height, open apertures, and tabular figure support make it ideal for both marketing copy and dense security dashboards. Inter’s variable-weight design allows seamless transitions from heavy, authoritative headlines to legible system data.
Hierarchy
Section titled “Hierarchy”Organize typography hierarchically according to relative importance through weight, case, and scale.
-2% to -4% letter spacing
Large scale marketing headlines
Section headers and UI titles
1.5× leading for long-form
Data & Status Labels
Section titled “Data & Status Labels”Use Inter Medium or SemiBold in all caps with wide tracking for functional status indicators and dashboard labels.
Monospace
Section titled “Monospace”Use Cascadia Code or Source Code Pro for code snippets, terminal output, data tables, and technical identifiers like IDs and hashes. This ensures clear distinction between narrative content and machine-readable data.
Do not
Section titled “Do not”- Use any typeface other than Inter for Origin communications
- Set display headers in lowercase — always use UPPERCASE for marketing headlines
- Use letter spacing tighter than -4% or wider than +10%
- Set body text below 14px / 0.875rem for readability
