Tarif Font Family
Tarif Font Family: Bridging Typography and Cultural Harmony
The Tarif Font Family, designed by Andrea Tartarelli for Zetafonts, embodies the spirit of Convivencia—a historical era of multicultural coexistence in 10th-century Andalusia where Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities collaboratively preserved classical Greek philosophy and enriched European culture. This slab serif typeface merges humanist proportions with postmodern flair, featuring inverted contrast, extreme ink traps, and calligraphic nuances that harmonize Latin and Arabic scripts. Available in seven weights with matching italics, Tarif balances exuberant display suitability (for logos, titles) with editorial readability. Its Arabic counterpart, co-developed by Rania Azmi, reinterprets Latin design principles into fluid, modern Arabic letterforms. The family supports OpenType features like ligatures and alternate characters, enhancing versatility for multilingual projects. While the free version is restricted to personal use, commercial licenses unlock full Latin-Arabic character sets, reflecting Zetafonts’ commitment to bridging typographic traditions through innovative, culturally resonant design.
