These 21 independent typefaces share widths and other metric information so that they can be recombined. Thus History has the potential to generate thousands of different unique styles. History 1, e.g., is a hairline sans; History 2 is Peignotian; History 14 is a multiline face; History 15 is a stapler face, and so forth.

He writes: My objective is to work on Quranic Fonts, with Latest Digital Technology, and enhance them for the maximum visibility. My aim is to produce High Quality Mushaf & Naskh fonts, with the best possible placement of Tashkeel (Diacritics). I've developed, Indo-Pak Quranic Calligraphy System (QCS), Full Quran, having more than 15000 Ligatures, now used widely in Pakistan, for the printing of Quran.

Yara Khoury Nammour

Graphic and type designer based in Beirut. Award winner at 25 TDC in 2022 for Mithaq. Yara writes: Mithaq is a custom-designed Arabic geometric display typeface that investigates the level of abstraction letterforms can reach within a typeface. Inspired by the triangular Lahj openings of mud houses typical of Najdi architecture in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the typeface is based on basic elementary shapes. It seeks to modernize, unify and standardize letters into an idealistic form that combines function and form while challenging its own legibility. The letters seek to reflect the visual heritage of the area; they are clean and concrete, as if cut from stone. The strokes are very brisk and uniform in width. The counter spaces within the one letter and the inter-letter spacing maintain the geometric aspect with an emphasis on the triangular form. Commissioned by AlMohtaraf design house for the King Salman Commission for Architecture and Urbanism by the Architecture and Design Commission, Ministry of Culture, Saudi Arabia. Mithaq was developed together with AlMohtaraf Design House in Jeddah. [Google] [More]  ⦿
