Kook specimen from NoonFont

A six-weight geometric Arabic and Persian typeface with subtly angled strokes and sharp joint breaks designed to improve texture and legibility at text sizes.

About

Kook began as a straightforward geometric typeface before the designer introduced angled pen strokes, joint breaks and unconventional letterform bends to enrich its texture at smaller sizes. The family covers Persian, Arabic, Kurdish and Urdu alongside a Latin companion based on the open-source Athiti. Six weights from ExtraLight to ExtraBold make it suited to advertising, UI design and social media, though it is not optimised for sustained long-form reading.

Classification

A geometric Perso/Arabic typeface with slightly angled pen strokes, sharp joint breaks and non-standard letterform bends — characteristics that place it within the geometric sans tradition adapted for Arabic script.
