Author's note

B Compset by Borna Rayaneh is a free Arabic display font with a compact, typeset rhythm and a distinctly modular look. The letters feel tightly packed and weighty, building words out of squared curves and short joins that give the font a firm, urban texture rather than a calligraphic flow.

That makes it a natural fit for posters, magazine covers, music packaging, title cards, and branding where a short line needs presence without ornament. As a free font, B Compset is especially useful for cover lines, logotypes, and other brief display settings, because its dense Arabic forms hold together as bold blocks of text.
