Bahij Lotus, developed and designed by font designers from Bahij Virtual Academy, including Abdul Hamid, Tim Holloway, and Robert Slimbach, presents a regular Qalam writing Persian font with symmetrical letterforms and even spacing. Drawing inspiration from Naskh script, its horizontal influence is evident, contributing to its formal appearance. Being introduced on December 28, 2019, this font tends to offer an extensive list of 843 symbols and characters with a huge glyph count of 1217 glyphs. Moreover, with the support for Arabic, Latin, Greek, and other languages, the appeal for this font increases even more. It is present in 2 different weights including:
- Bahij Lotus Light
- Bahij Lotus Bold
The font’s constant thickness, strong stroke, and slightly thin and slanted edges lend it a professional and easy-to-understand appearance, making it suitable for both short and long textual blocks. Its moderate thickness and regular letterforms without extra decorations provide a formal look, while the monospaced letters with slightly rounded corners evoke a sense of precision and clarity, akin to Qalam writing. Bahij Lotus offers high legibility on screens and supports various Unicode blocks, ensuring compatibility across platforms and applications. Whether used for creative posters, books, newspapers, or formatting official documents, its versatile nature and formal aesthetic make it a reliable choice for a wide range of design projects.
