Mashrebiya Font Competition (Khatt Foundation)
In 2017, the Khatt Foundation launched a type design competition for fonts specifically designed to produce modern Mashrebiya architectural screens. [The Mashrebiya screen is an iconic element of Arab/Islamic architecture. Mashrebiyas are still popular as separation screens or walls, however they are often constructed from complex geometrical parts and shapes, and rarely using only letters.] Each award winner will be paid 1000 Euros. The jury consisted of Yara Khoury Nammour, Pascal Zoghbi, and Edo Smitshuijzen. |
