Typeface: Tabati
Typeface Designer: Lara Assouad Khoury, Beirut, Lebanon
Client: Dar Onboz Publishing
Languages: Arabic
Designer’s Concept:
Tabati started with the story of a little red ball and its escapades in a world populated by circular sh, triangular trees, rectangular buses, and square rocks. It is an experiment in abstraction, simplicity, and legibility. Tabati presents an alternative reading of the Arabic alphabet through the basic geometric shapes or masses it defines rather than the lines it traces on paper.
