About
Designed by Mohamad Dakak with the Greek drawn by Kostas Bartsokas, Jali Greek is a wayfinding-oriented humanist sans that balances functional clarity with a natural typographic voice. Low-contrast strokes, generous counters and carefully distinguished letterforms make it well-suited for signage, transport and any setting where legibility under pressure matters. The family won a first prize at Granshan 2019 and an EBGE award for original Greek typeface design in 2022.
