Author's note

Aragatz by Arutyun Kiremidzhyan is a free Armenian display font with tall, slender forms and an open, architectural silhouette. Rounded arches meet abrupt horizontal bars, and changing stroke widths give the lettering a crisp cadence.

As a theatrical title, it can set the scene for cultural festivals, museum posters, and music packaging rooted in Armenian subjects. Its broad curves and hooks can echo architectural drawings or borders, making the type part of the imagery.
