The typeface was designed to be used for setting text and titles of contemporary Arabic content, specially magazines, and websites. Since the beginning, Palsam was intended to be a super multilingual family, with a real cursive Arabic companion, and a display cut. The complete Athelas family has been optimised for today’s varied screen uses, along with our entire catalogue. With this release it will only gain a wider and quite appropriate audience. The graceful, elegant curves of the Athelas heritage have remained a hallmark in each script. With extensive Middle Eastern language coverage and the expected OpenType features, Athelas Arabic is the counterpart for which Athelas Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic have been waiting. Ultimately, both the Latin and Arabic are graceful designs based on classic proportions, prioritising the beauty, tranquility, and fluid nature of the wordsmith’s art.
Finally, the spacing and connections in the Arabic were considered to achieve comparable colour as the Latin in a block of text. First, the Arabic letter sizes were readjusted so as to not appear larger next to the Latin, then weight and contrast were changed in the same way. So it was decided to give Athelas Arabic a thorough reworking to make them appropriate companions while maintaining the natural aesthetic qualities of Arabic. Originally designed independently, it worked entirely on its own and yet already seemed a good fit for Athelas. Futura is a Registered Trademark of Bauer Types S.L.Īthelas Arabic, created by talented Iranian designer Sahar Afshar, is an elegant typeface for fine digital and printed books - perfect for Arabic literature’s captivating forms. The commemorative plaque left on the Moon in July 1969 features text set in Futura. Futura works well for short blocks of text copy and captions. It is a good choice for space-sensitive environments. Futura is an exceptionally versatile typeface, suitable for headlines, sub-headings and body text at a smaller point sizes. Boutros Futura was designed to work harmoniously with the URW-Latin whilst respecting Arabic calligraphic and cultural rules. The Futura URW family has sixth weights for each - Latin and Arabic - variant (Extra Bold, Bold, Demi, Medium, Book and Light). In 1928 it was striking, tasteful and radical and today it continues to be a popular typographic choice to express strength, elegance and clarity. One of the great names in typography, Futura is a geometric sans-serif typeface originally designed by Paul Renner for the Bauer Type Foundry in 1928.
#AVENIR ROUNDED FONT FREE PROFESSIONAL#
I dedicate the design of this font family to the memory of this great man.įutura is a modern bilingual typeface designed and created by two professional groups, each expert in their own field. He was a polymath and a renowned scholar. He lived in Baghdad and was assassinated at the instigation of an Abbasid caliph. The quasi-geometric character of Kofic melds with the calligraphic grace of Naskh, which was invented by Iben Moghleh, an Iranian savant of the ninth century. The design of this font family is inspired by two classic scripts: Kufic and Naskh.
The NaNa Arabic Font Family is available in four weights: Thin, Light, Regular and Bold. It also includes proportional and tabular numerals for the supported languages. NaNa Arabic supports Arabic, Persian and Urdu. This step was necessary after more than two hundred years of relative stagnation in Arabic font design. This innovation is a contribution to the modernisation of Arabic typography, giving the font design of Arabic letters real typographic arrangement and providing greater typographic flexibility. It was developed in 2012/2013 on the basis of specific research and analysis of Arabic characters and definition of their structure. NaNa Arabic is a new creation of Naghi Naghashian.
