Only 2 of the 8 styles lean: Light Italic and Italic. The rest of the Zain family runs upright from Extra Light at 200 to Black at 900, which is an unusual mix, and a reminder that this started as a corporate typeface with a specific list of needs.
Zain Group is a telecom company working in 8 markets across the Middle East and Africa, and Boutros Fonts drew the type for it. The brief asked for something modern in both Arabic and Latin, with the Arabic respecting calligraphic and cultural rules, and with the 2 scripts in harmony so a bilingual ad or bill reads as 1 design. It was meant to cover everything from headlines down to body text, on paper and on the web.
The language list is long for a brand face. Besides Arabic and English, the design brief named Urdu, Farsi, Kurdish, Indonesian and Tagalog.
There are 3 stylistic sets and a choice of tabular or proportional lining figures, useful when a price table and a paragraph of copy sit on the same screen. Zain came to Google Fonts in May 2024.
