Snaga Grotesk broadens its horizons linguistically, as it now supports Arabic, and artistically, thanks to the addition of exciting unicase variants for Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic.
While the presence of decorative elements makes most Arabic fonts look quite playful, Snaga Arabic aims to be a highly readable and reliable voice for serious interactions with the reader. Designed in collaboration with Berlin-based Iranian designer Golnar Katrahmani, it is a dynamic Arabic with a subtle reverse contrast. The typeface judiciously combines open and closed forms to achieve optimal readability in smaller type sizes. One of its primary goals was to have the original Snaga and the Arabic complement mix seamlessly so that Latin words don’t stand out in Arabic text. By introducing Snaga Grotesk’s characteristic shapes and curves into the Arabic script, Snaga Arabic turned into an ‘Arabic grotesk’, a rare, valuable style in the typographic landscape. Use Snaga Arabic to project stability and confidence.
An independent type foundry based in Berlin, Germany. It was founded by Botio Nikoltchev in 2014. The main focus of lettersoup is cooking fonts with Latin, Cyrillic, Greek and Arabic taste.
