Rakkas is single-weight display typeface that supports the Arabic and Latin scripts.
|
|
The two scripts share a united style, with neither pretending to be the other, and each interesting in its own right.
|
|
The Arabic design is inspired by Ruq'ah lettering on Egyptian movie posters from the 50s and 60s, and makes use of contextual alternates to emulate calligraphy.
|
|
It offers different forms for many letter position and it cascades vertically, giving the user an opportunity to play.
|
|
The Latin design infuses a blackletter design with informality.
