Bulbis specimen from Zarma Type

A graffiti-rooted bubble display typeface from Zarma Type, available in three structural variants: Outline, Filled and Anti-Counter.

About

Bulbis is a bold bubble display typeface designed by Azzam Ridhamalik for Zarma Type in 2023, rooted in graffiti and street art with an explicit y2k and streetwear sensibility. It comes in three structural variants — Outline, Filled and Anti-Counter — each applying a different treatment to the same rounded, buoyant letterform. The extended Latin character set covers European languages, though its appeal is entirely decorative: logos, brand marks and social media graphics where that aesthetic is the brief.

Classification

Bubble display typeface with graffiti and street art roots. Three structural variants rather than weight range: Outline, Filled and Anti-Counter, each rendering the same buoyant letterform with different opacity and depth. No italics, no condensed, no mono companion. Extended Latin glyph set with PUA encoded characters and OpenType support.
