ABOUT







Tim Holloway

British designer who won an award at Bukvaraz 2001 for NoName. At Linotype in 1994, he designed the Arabic font Karim, with a Latin part that borrows the glyph set from Janson Roman. His Adobe Arabic (2005) won an award at TDC2 2006. Vodafone Hindi (2007, with Fiona Ross and John Hudson) won an award at TDC2 2008. Mitra (2005, Linotype) is a modern Arabic text typeface with two weights: Mitra Light and Mitra Bold. Both of the fonts include Latin glyphs (from Optima Medium and Optima Bold, respectively) inside the font files, allowing a single font to set text in both most Western European and Arabic languages.
