About
Lalezar revives the bold, dynamic letterforms characteristic of Film-Farsi movie posters from Iran's 1960s and 1970s popular culture. Designed for Arabic script and a compatible Latin companion, it suits expressive display use across languages using Arabic script. The typeface is single-weight and non-variable, supporting Arabic, Latin, Latin Extended, and Vietnamese subsets.
Overview
Lalezar is an Arabic and Latin display typeface created to capture the energetic style of lettering used in Iranian Film-Farsi movie posters during the 1960s and 1970s. These posters featured bold, provocative letterforms that emphasized popular themes like romance and heroism. This typeface transforms that aesthetic into a modern design suitable for various languages using Arabic script, complemented by a Latin companion. It is a single-weight, normal style font supporting multiple scripts including Arabic, Latin, Latin Extended, and Vietnamese.
