29Letters/29LT

CONCEPT:
29LT Zarid Display is bold by nature and extreme in character. Zarid Display is the valiant version of Zarid Text. The neo-Naskh glyphs of Zarid Text transform into amalgams inspired by both the Thuluth and the Naskh calligraphic styles. Thuluth is considered as the elegant style in classical Arabic calligraphy that was crafted for important writings. Naskh is, however, known as the common style designed for standard copy text. The design decision adopted to blend these two realms gives the typeface a unique characteristic and makes it offer a new Arabic typographic hierarchy option.
