NoonFont · Hassan Manzoori, Shahrzad Akbari · 2022
A geometric Arabic display family in nine weights, drawn from the Kufic Banna'i tradition and constructed on a strict grid of squares and circles.
About
Morabba balances positive and negative space with precision: the ratio shifts from 2:1 in the heaviest weight to 5:1 in the lightest, giving the family a coherent internal logic across its full range. Intelligent dot positioning adapts to adjacent letterforms, and a Kashida variable axis enables controlled word expansion for line justification. It covers Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Kurdish and Latin, and is available as a variable font spanning weight axis values from 250 to 900.
Classification
A strictly geometric Arabic display typeface rooted in Kufic Banna'i script, constructed on a grid of square and circular forms. Its rigid geometric construction and orientation toward short text, wordmarks and posters places it firmly in the display category.
