Author's note

B Elham by Borna Rayaneh is a free Arabic display font with a calligraphic, ink-drawn feel. The letters lean on bold sweeping strokes and compact curves, giving the font a dense, rhythmic texture that feels rooted in headline lettering rather than neutral setting.

It fits branding for cultural events, book covers, poster titles, packaging, and short editorial headings where that flowing movement can carry the composition. As a free font, B Elham makes the most sense in short phrases, title cards, and logotype-style treatments, where its dark interconnected shapes and lively handwritten character have room to do the work.
