Blaka specimen from Google Fonts

A bold, angular Arabic display typeface rooted in Kufi traditions, with a Latin companion that echoes its blackletter-like intensity.

About

Blaka brings the dramatic weight and geometric rigidity of classical Kufi calligraphy into a contemporary display setting, creating letterforms of considerable visual authority. Its affinity with blackletter aesthetics makes it compelling for cross-cultural poster and headline work where both scripts must carry equal typographic weight. It is a single-weight display face best reserved for titles and short bursts of text.

Classification

Blaka is a bold Arabic and Latin display typeface inspired by classical Kufi script traditions, rendered with thick, angular strokes that share visual kinship with Western blackletter forms. Its Latin companion is designed to harmonise with the assertive weight and geometric angularity of the Arabic.
