The founding serif cut of the Zarid system, bridging Arabic Naskh Mastari and Latin wedge-serif scripts.

About

29LT Zarid Serif bridges Arabic Naskh Mastari and Latin wedged scripts, with delicate varying contrast between light and heavy weights, open counters and clean terminals. Eight weights balance calligraphic angular cuts with modern construction, low contrast in lighter weights and crisper cuts in heavier ones.

Classification

Delicate varying contrast bridging Arabic Naskh Mastari and Latin wedged-serif scripts places the core Zarid cut in the serif category.
