About Aisha Arabic
Aisha Arabic is a fun, funky typeface that walks the line between text and display typography, with a fluid and carefree style that echoes the unique type and lettering traditions of North African Arabic.
Aisha originated from Titus Nemeth’s research into the Maghribi style of the Arabic script. Its regular weight is based on antiquarian foundry type Nemeth discovered in a 19th century book, reinterpreted for contemporary usage and technology. He extended the family to four weights, and developed a Latin face to accompany the Arabic.
Aisha’s generous curves and joyful variations are inspired by the expressiveness of regional Algerian and Moroccan lettering. Its smart features provide a variety of contextual alternates, discretionary ligatures, and stylistic sets ready to accommodate Arabic, Berber, and the multilingual typesetting common across the Maghreb. Aisha may be a historically informed typeface but — just like the Maghreb itself — it blends influences from a host of origins into its own unique, contemporary identity.

Y no hace falta ser un entendido en tipografía árabe, creo, para concluir que Aisha es de lo mejorcito en un género, el de las fundiciones árabes de estilo magrebí, …
A. Giménez Reíllo -
Congrats on the reworked Aisha. Ranging figures seems – in hindsight – like a no-brainer for Arabic; great touch!
David Lemon, Adobe Type -
Titus Nemeth describes the model for Aisha as ‘curious and very playful’ — which is exactly what makes Aisha so attractive. The loopy, brush-like quality of the Arabic makes a smooth transition into the Latin version; both scripts exude a lively playfulness.
