About Lemonada

Lemonada is a display family that pairs an Arabic design with a slanted, brush-like Latin. The Latin began as Eduardo Tunni's typeface Lemon, which he extended in weight; in the specimen its letters lean forward, strokes swell and taper like a soft brush, and words are widely spaced. Mohamed Gaber drew the Arabic, starting from Naskh and bringing in influences of Diwani, with wide, open counters meant to keep small text readable while finer details show at large sizes. The family is a variable font with a weight axis from 300 to 700 and five named weights, Light to Bold, without separate italics. The file holds 818 glyphs across Arabic, Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese subsets. Gaber, who works in Cairo, leads the project, and the name table lists Kief Type Foundry as manufacturer.

Where Lemonada works

Bilingual Arabic and Latin branding
The two scripts were designed as one family, so a name set in both keeps the same soft, brush-like tone.
Food and drink packaging
Slanted, swelling strokes give labels a hand-painted, friendly look, and Bold holds on coloured backgrounds.
Headlines and banners
Five weights on one axis let a title be tuned from a light line to a heavy one.
Children's and lifestyle content
Rounded joins and the forward lean read as informal in titles and short captions.
