From the foundry
A companion to Noir No1 Latin, Noir Arabic is a geometric design inspired by Naskh writing style letterforms while trying to stay close to the Latin proportions. Noir Arabic blends structured and flowing forms, drawing influence from both precise and expressive elements of Naskh style while trying to get close to abstract shapes without losing the authenticy and visual aspects of Arabic script. Versatile and approachable, it comes in 9 weights, from Thin to Black, making it ideal for both extended body text and headlines.
