Bauhaus is celebrating its centenary in this year. For the Bauhaus’s 100th anniversary year, art and design museums and galleries around the world are hosting exhibitions and events. The publication of „Bauhaus Arabic" font family is my contribution to celebrate this event.

Bauhaus Arabic is a sans-serif font family designed by Naghi Naghashian in tree weights. Bauhaus Arabic Light, Bauhaus Arabic Medium and Bauhaus Arabic Bold. It is extremely legible even in very small size. This font family is a contribution to modernisation of Arabic typography, gives the font design of Arabic letters real typographic arrangement und provides more typographic flexibility. Bauhaus Arabic supports Arabic, Persian ( Farsi ) and Urdu. It also includes proportional and tabular numerals for the supported languages. Bauhaus Arabic design fulfills the following needs:

A Explicitly crafted for use in electronic media fulfills the demands of electronic communication.

B Suitability for multiple applications. Gives the widest potential acceptability.

C Extreme legibility not only in small sizes, but also when the type is filtered or skewed, e.g., in Photoshop or Illustrator. Bauhaus Arabic's simplified forms may be artificial obliqued in InDesign or Illustrator, without any loss in quality for the effected text.

D An attractive typographic image. Bauhaus Arabic was developed for multiple languages and writing conventions. Bauhaus Arabic supports Arabic, Persian and Urdu. It also includes proportional and tabular numerals for the supported languages.

E The highest degree of calligraphic grace and the clarity of geometric typography.
