Description
Electric Calligraphy is a series of Arabic typeface designs that re-examine the evolutionary path of the Arabic script within the Latin-based technological constraints, adding new perspectives to the discourse of contemporary type design. The names of Allah are often displayed in intricate calligraphy to reflect the beauty of their meaning. Displaying them through calligraphy that is guided by light, constructed with segments and modules, brings a new way to honor them in contemporary times. Credit: Raviv Cohen
