Lake Toba

by Imran Nasution · Website

Lake Toba is an ornamental initials font by Imran Nasution, with uppercase letterforms filled with intricate carved patterns inspired by the traditional art of the Batak people of North Sumatra. Each character feels dense and handcrafted, like woodblock carvings or woven textile motifs pressed into type. Strictly a display face for headlines, drop caps, and cultural or ethnic-themed design work where the detail can breathe at large sizes.
