Author's note

GE MB Farasha Light by Boutros International is a free sign dingbat font built from compact, solid forms. The symbols have blunt edges and dense, almost pictogram-like silhouettes. Their simple geometry feels practical rather than ornamental.

As compact markers, these forms suit wayfinding systems, maps, and app interfaces, where a clear symbol can identify a place or action quickly. They can also become the actual buttons, markers, or directional signs within a graphic system instead of serving as ordinary lettering.
