Kufin
Typogama · Michael Parson · 2015
A Latin display typeface by Michael Parson that reinterprets the geometric angularity of traditional Kufic Arabic script into a single-weight Latin family with OpenType alternates and ligatures.
About
Released in September 2015, the face translates the rigid, architectural character of Kufic letterforms into Latin capitals and lowercase, with small capitals, alternates and ligatures offering varied layout possibilities within its one style. It is available free for non-commercial use in OTF and WOFF2 formats, covering ISO Latin-1 through Latin-4 character sets across a broad range of European languages.
Classification
A Latin display typeface drawing formal inspiration from the geometric angularity of Kufic Arabic script. The rectilinear, architectural letterforms place it firmly in the display category rather than any conventional Latin classification.
