Haiku
Haiku is a contemporary typeface that focuses on the connectivity and interaction of letters. While remaining faithful to the baseline, it steps beyond traditional typesetting and lettercasting, creating new degrees of readability and familiarity.
Haiku is an originally hand crafted typeface which makes it a tasteful font to use in different projects and use-cases. Many years of observing and studying old manuscripts and old-school handwritings together with using open type capabilities made this font possible. As a variable font, Haiku is variable along two axes: weight and speed.
Haiku can be used for both text and display purposes.
Keshideh (Tatweel) is an organic feature of this font, and is injected in the shaping phase, giving an internal dance to the words, and can be reduced/increased according to speed axis while maintaining its original balance. The concern was to represent the fluid and connected nature of the script, regarding the restrictions which come from machine typing and line composition.

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.
