AwanZaman is a multilingual font released in 2016. Mamoun Sakkal designed the Arabic glyphs and Juliet Shen the latin glyphs. The latin was developed specifically to support the Arabic typography in form and function. This sample is the cover of an exhibition catalog, typeset with alternate characters available within the font as an OpenType feature. Cumulatively, the alternate characters serve to give the typeface a more playful, informal personality. Available from TypeTogether online foundry.

A digital font inspired by metal typefaces from ATF (American Typefounders Company). The roman is quirky and distinctive yet notably readable, even at small text sizes. The italic is a casual, somewhat irreverent script. Bullen has the proportions of contemporaneous Gothic typefaces (19th and early 20th century American sans serifs), making it especially suitable as a text face in combination with fonts like Benton Sans. Bullen is available for purchase at http://www.fontbureau.com/fonts/Bullen/. Available as OpenType fonts with extended language coverage, tabular figures and arbitrary fractions. A full specimen sheet in pdf form is available for download.
