Passionate about calligraphy and environmental design from early childhood, Ali Pezeshk learned every style of Persian and Arabic writing in early ages from local sign-makers and by looking at inscriptions in historical buildings of Iran. He studied Computer engineering and worked as Pre-press specialist at Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults (Kanoon) for 2 years, which gave him a good sense of font usage and typography in publishing. Then he experimented different fields of design and made his first font based on vintage Iranian film posters in 2016. After changing his filed of focus for about a decade, researching handmade papers and related artworks, he again started designing fonts based on his ideas evolved in the recent years about language and type.
