Al Mwaheb 4 is designed by Mohamed Amer Abdul Sami, a well-known font developer from Egypt. It is a modern decorative Arabic font renowned for its tightly spaced and well-aligned letterforms, infused with various design elements. Released on March 13, 2007, by foundries such as Yahoo, Monotype, Type Solutions, and Glyph Systems, this font gives off a celebratory vibe, making it a perfect choice for invitations, gift cards, and creative projects. With 495 characters and 458 glyphs, it can write various languages across several platforms easily. Moreover, the font supports Arabic, Latin, English, Persian, and many other languages, catering to diverse typographic needs.
Its defining feature lies in its contrasting thickness, where vertical letters appear thicker than horizontal ones, accompanied by a thin baseline. The strokes are dynamic and playful, adding to its lively appearance. Sharp corners with decorative terminals ending in thick dots curled inwards give this unique font a modern outlook. However, its all-way-long decorative design elements and tight spacing may lower legibility, especially at smaller sizes. The font is best suited for short textual blocks, such as titles, creative posters, invitations, logos, gift cards, and branding projects. Despite its limited adaptability with only one font weight available, Al Mwaheb 4 offers versatility in design applications. Its compatibility with Unicode blocks ensures seamless integration into various digital platforms. Whether used for festive occasions or creative endeavors, this font adds a touch of elegance and flair to any project.
