About
Momken began as a series of Arabic lettering pieces made for poster work, gradually developed into a full typeface under the Boharat Type Foundry. The name, meaning 'possible' in Arabic, reflects confidence in the flexibility of the Arabic script to accommodate new formal approaches. Its character is experimental rather than conventional, positioning it as a display face suited to editorial and cultural contexts.
