Description: We have all seen the very big difference between Latin and Persian alphabets. One has vertical, almost isometric, monospaced letters and the other one has ups and downs on and off the baseline, also different weights and widths are another issue. When we use these two alphabets in a design, letters doesn’t match. But we accept that, because there was no other choice. So, years ago, I decided to do something about this and I realized that I should change the Persian alphabet in a modern typographic way. I did these things: 1- Removed the connection between the letters. [All Persian (Arabic) letters are connected to each other unlike the Latin letters.] To do this I made the letters vertical oriented and separated from each other. 2- Once you decide to accomplish number 1, you realize that you should design the letters from scratch. So I did. Every single letter in this Persian alphabet is redesigned to fit this idea. But all of them are inspired by the original letters. Any Persian (Arabic) parson can read them. This is a typographic approach to design a modern Persian typeface. 3- After doing all of that, now there is no need to have 4 (or 2) forms for each letter. (Initial, medial, final and isolated glyphs) Therefore, this font performs like a Latin typeface and shows one form for each letter. 4- I also wanted to do this in an isometric and monospaced style. There are no angles except 90 degrees. I too, changed some of the Latin letters to reach this goal. (I want to mention that this is a new style to design Persian fonts and can be improved or changed through time by others in different ways.) 5- And to complete the fantasy, the typeface comes with 10 different weights! It enables the user to have a good experience with the typeface. Shahab Siavash , 2016
