Odibee Sans

A free font, built in one day.

A ONE DAY BUILD
"Oh-dee-bee"

 

Odibee Sans is a display font, created in a day by London-based designer James Barnard. As a fan of Adam Savage’s One Day Builds, James set out to create his very own 'ODB' and completed the entire character set, numbers and the basic glyphs in 24 hours.

 

His process is documented here, but since then a second version has been created to refine the design and add extended Latin support. The font is now available under the SIL Open Font License, meaning you can use Odibee Sans today, completely free of charge. Odibee Sans is now available from Google Fonts
