Description
Derived from the iconic Orbitron custom car designed by Ed Roth in 1964, this font features a distinctive asymmetrical design reminiscent of its front end. The font's character set embodies the essence of the vehicle's vibrant, futuristic aesthetic, with bold letters and an engaging visual flow. The font's design is further accentuated by its use of red, green, and blue tinted letters, mirroring the car's headlamps and symbolizing the intense white light from three beams combined – a nod to the then-new medium of color television.
