About Gulzar

Designed by a multidisciplinary team including Borna Izadpanah, Fiona Ross, Alice Savoie, and Simon Cozens, Gulzar is a Nastaliq-style Arabic serif of exceptional scholarly quality, intended for long-form Urdu and Persian literary texts. Its calligraphic stroke modulation and carefully crafted contextual alternates honor centuries of manuscript tradition while meeting the technical demands of digital typesetting. The font is especially valuable for publishers, cultural institutions, and academic projects working with classical South Asian poetic and prose literature.
