Al Fars 1 Arshia, designed by Syed Irtiza Hassan Rizvi and released on November 14, 2019, is a sans-serif rounded Arabic font. Inspired by the Naskh script and modern influences, it features condensed letterforms with blunt edges and circular corners, creating a distinctive and contemporary appearance. With 219 characters and 334 glyphs, the font tends to support various tools and cover different design needs. Moreover, it supports Arabic, Latin, and Urdu languages, making it versatile for several design projects. Its constant thickness and strong strokes ensure a bold presence, while its overall soft and circular look adds a touch of elegance.
The font offers high legibility on screens and is particularly well-suited for long textual blocks due to its easy readability. However, its distinct appearance may limit its usability as an editorial font in books and newspapers. Al Fars 1 Arshia finds applications in social media posts, logos, branding, creative posters, and book covers, where its unique look can make designs stand out. While it may not be suitable for all editorial contexts, its modern and sophisticated aesthetic adds flair to whatever text you use it with.
