The Anatomy of a Typeface
By FontSide · June 2026
Every typeface is a system of decisions — about stroke contrast, x-height, spacing, and rhythm. The best ones feel invisible: you stop seeing the letters and start hearing the voice behind them. That transparency is the hardest thing to design.
A high x-height opens up the counters and makes small text breathe. Tight tracking pulls a headline together; loose tracking gives a caption room to exhale. None of these choices are accidents — they are arguments about how reading should feel.

/* Please select at least one weight and style */ Background & Story
Almarai is a modern Arabic and sans serif Latin typeface family in 4 weights. The font was created by Boutros™ for optimal readability and suitability for both online and offline applications.
Almarai’s beauty lies in its clarity and simplicity. Beneath the font’s geometric look lies a strict adherence to calligraphic structure and rules. Each letter has been crafted with careful attention to detail, retaining subtle hints of handwriting. Letters have low contrast and wide aperture in all four weights. These characteristics were designed to enhance the readability of the font in various media, especially on screen.
