About

Mada is a sans-serif typeface family featuring a modernist design inspired by Cairo road signage. It includes an Arabic component with low descenders and open contours, optimized for small sizes and UI use, alongside a Latin component derived from Source Sans Pro. The family supports multiple weights and a variable weight axis, making it adaptable for various design needs.

Overview

Mada is a modernist, unmodulated Arabic typeface inspired by road signage seen around Cairo, Egypt. Its Arabic forms feature low descenders, open contours, and low contrast, making it suitable for signage, small point sizes, and user interfaces. The Latin component is a slightly modified version of Source Sans Pro, providing a clean and contemporary look. Mada works well both as a display and text typeface, offering a simplistic and modern feel across its weight range.
