Portada Arabic

Description

For everyone wishing for a modern Arabic typeface that’s clear and readable in restrictive digital environments, meet Portada Arabic by Sahar Afshar. As an expansion of the Portada family, Portada Arabic addresses the main problems of typefaces on screens: font families with a slightly flared structure may appear fickle and unsteady, pixel grids change from one screen dimension to another, and space is always a high concern. So low contrast fonts have become the go-to choice on small screens to save space and carry a modern tone. Portada Arabic now provides a Naskh-style option for these restrictive digital environments, putting to rest the old idea that screens require low contrast fonts. The screen has met its match. It was created from and for the digital world — from e-ink or harsh grids to Retina capability — and these properties are also what makes it warm in printed formats.
