Unikurd Roonak, crafted by font designers Bardaqani, Ardawan, and Azad and introduced by the Kurd It Group on October 26, 2012, embodies a bold and free-style Kurdish font with a distinctive irregular look. Drawing inspiration from hand-written styles, it features contrasting thick and thin letterforms with wide edges, giving off a dynamic and unusual aesthetic. While it maintains a sense of structure, slight Nastaliq elements are visible in some slanted letters, adding to its unique charm. With 358 characters and 339 glyphs, Unikurd Roonak offers comprehensive language support, including Arabic, Latin, Urdu, Kurdish, and more. While its irregular nature may pose challenges for prolonged reading, it conveys a natural and free-spirited vibe, making it ideal for short texts where its decorative and untidy appearance can make a statement.
Despite its informal look and feel, the font tends to offer high legibility, ensuring clarity and readability in various design applications. Its thick and changing thickness and strong and dynamic strokes add to its visual impact, making it suitable for branding, creative posters and logos, Quran writing, invitations, gift cards, and more. While it may not be suited for formal contexts, its expressive and unique nature makes it a valuable asset for projects seeking to break free from traditional design conventions.
