سلام
Kufic — angular & architectural
Geometric, square-shouldered letterforms. Perfect for logos, tattoos, posters and anything that should look bold and structural.
سلام
Diwani — flowing & ornamental
Highly cursive with sweeping curves and tightly interlocked letters — the most decorative choice for names and wedding art.
سلام
Ruqaa — compact & handwritten
Short strokes, flat baselines and small counters. This is how most of the Arab world handwrites today.
سلام
Thuluth — monumental & majestic
Tall, dramatic verticals and deep curves. The showpiece style used for titles, mosque inscriptions and wall art.
سلام
Modern — clean & contemporary
A light, modern calligraphic hand — elegant thin strokes that suit minimal branding and social posts.
سلام
Nastaliq — sloping & lyrical
A hanging, diagonal script with sweeping descenders and compact word shapes. Especially suited to Persian and Urdu poetry, names and elegant quotations.
سلام
Qur’anic Naskh — classical & scholarly
Refined Naskh proportions, generous diacritics and a manuscript-like rhythm designed for dignified verses, literary passages and formal compositions.
سلام
Fatimid Kufic — monumental & historic
A tall, compact display face inspired by Fatimid-era architectural inscriptions, with emphatic verticals and carved geometric presence.
سلام
Maghrebi — sweeping & western
The classic hand of North Africa and al-Andalus: rounded letters of even thickness, wide open bowls that dip below the line, and long stretched horizontals.
سلام
Square Kufic — geometric & grid-like
Letters locked into a strict square grid of right angles — the boldest, most architectural style for logos, seals and statement pieces.
سلام
Ornamented Kufic — outlined & decorative
A hollow, outlined variant of square Kufic geometry — airy and ornamental, striking at large sizes for posters and tattoo outlines.
سلام
Old Kufic — ancient & austere
Broad, horizontal letterforms with minimal curves, recalling the earliest Qur'an manuscripts. Solemn and timeless for heritage designs.
سلام
Taliq (Persian) — hanging & theatrical
Sloping, suspended strokes with dramatic rhythm — the Persian chancery hand, ancestor of Nastaliq, full of movement and flair.
سلام
Kano (West African) — bold & handwritten
The bold, wide-nibbed hand of West African Ajami manuscripts — rounded, confident and unmistakably different from Middle Eastern styles.
سلام
Mohaqqaq-inspired — grand & elongated
Long horizontal sweeps and majestic proportions in the spirit of the 'king of scripts', ideal for dignified verses and certificates.
