Maitree means “friendliness” in Thai.
|
|
Maitree is a serif Latin and looped Thai typeface with wide proportions.
|
|
It is characterized by its bigger-than-usual looped terminal in Thai, and long serifs in Latin, that balance out the whole structure.
|
|
Maitree offers 6 weights, and its asymmetrically curved terminals are well-suited for both formal and casual usage, especially for works that require an antique and historical manner.

A similarity between some glyphs such as ก ถ ภ ฤ ฦ, ฎ ฏ, บ ป, or ข ช is something to take into consideration because it might lead to confusion when typesetting very short texts.
|
|
Sizes and positions of Thai vowels and tone marks have been managed carefully, because they are all relevant to readability, legibility, and overall texture.
