“Bilingua” – typeface by Kambiz Shafei

Bilingua is a typeface by a prominent Iranian designer and typographer Kambiz Shafei. Perhaps one of the most original fusions of Persian Arabic and Latin scripts to date, the type intelligently combines traditional Arabic/Persian script sensibility with a solid understanding of Latin typography, resulting in a typeface that feels organic and consistent across two different script systems.
