Dana
Dana typeface is an attempt to create a geometric typeface closely resembling the Naskh script. Its geometric nature gives Dana a modern and contemporary look, while its fidelity to the Naskh style ensures its readability in small sizes and long texts. Dana typeface was first released in June 2019 and has since been a favorite among product designers. Many new brands and businesses have adopted Dana font to achieve a modern and contemporary design.
