ae Ouhod is a bold and geometrical Arabic font designed by font designer Fazlur Rahman Quraishi. Released in May 2011, the font is a trademark of Arabic font foundry Arabeyes. It has a unique appearance, with all letters perfectly aligned to the same length. It has a relatively small and wide letterform, and due to its bold font weight, it appears to be slightly condensed. Drawing inspiration from the Naskh calligraphy script, it also includes some elements of traditional Kufic, which is evident in its square-like letterform. Moreover, this font is available in 2 different weights, which are as follow:
- ae Ouhod Bold
- ae Ouhod Regular
Ouhod is a versatile font with 377 characters and 359 glyphs, to write complete Arabic and Latin-based texts without any problem. Moreover, its appeal is increased with its wide language compatibility, supporting Arabic, Latin, Urdu, and more. The thickness remains constant with slightly thin and pointy edges, ensuring a solid and consistent stroke throughout the letterforms. While it excels in legibility on screens, smaller sizes may appear a bit condensed. It is best suited for short texts due to its bold appearance and single font weight. It’s versatile for various applications, with Unicode blocks covering Basic Latin, Arabic, and more. You can use this font to glorify various design projects such as invitations, branding, T-shirt designs, posters, logos, and more.
