Type Design for Lyon Arabic Typeface

Morcos Key collaborated with Khajag Apelian to create Lyon Arabic, a companion to Kai Bernau’s original Lyon typeface. The design adapts Naskh script features into a modern typographic system suitable for editorial use, balancing tradition and innovation across Text, Display, and Slanted versions.
