Author's note

Eastern Armenian is a free Armenian-script display font marked by extreme height and narrow proportions. Strong shifts between hairline and broad strokes shape tight arches, long verticals, deep drops, and sharp wedge-like details, producing a formal but eccentric silhouette.

It is especially convincing on cultural event posters and museum exhibition graphics, where the unmistakable letterforms can establish an Armenian context alongside historical objects, portraiture, or architectural photography. Book covers, fashion branding, and music artwork also suit its theatrical proportions, particularly for projects concerned with Armenian language, heritage, and contemporary regional culture.
