Foundry5
Foundry5 is a contemporary type foundry established in 2021, creating high-quality, multi-script typefaces that balance cultural authenticity with modern functionality. Believing that every script holds unique design potential, the foundry approaches Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Arabic, Devanagari, and beyond with equal care, producing work that is both visually distinctive and technically refined.

The library includes versatile releases such as Peridot, a multi-width sans-serif spanning four global scripts; Jali, a humanist design crafted for seamless readability across Arabic, Latin, and Greek; and Evert, a modern grotesque that blends expressive detailing with extensive stylistic features—with additional scripts and families currently in development.
