Eskander is a rounded Arabic type family developed for modern communication with a warm, approachable voice. The original design was created in 2018 and then carefully redrawn in 2021, refining the proportions, curves, spacing and overall rhythm while preserving the friendliness that defined the first version.

The family contains seven weights from Light to Heavy, allowing it to work across text, interface, editorial, branding and display applications. Rounded edges and soft transitions give the Arabic forms an inviting character, while the underlying structure keeps the family clear and dependable at different sizes.

Eskander supports Arabic, Persian and Urdu and includes contextual alternates, stylistic alternates, standard ligatures, fractions, ordinals and additional typographic features for professional use. It was designed by Ibrahim Hamdi for Protype Foundry and is intended for web, digital products and print.
