Author's note

Lathangi by Ethno Multimedia is a free Malayalam display font with a dense, heavy silhouette. Broad looping forms, deep vertical drops, and small rectangular openings give the script a compact, architectural appearance.

Designers working on Malayalam-language cultural projects can use it for festival posters, music artwork, and event signage. Its packed forms suit designs that draw on strong geometric patterns or solid graphic shapes. The lettering is apt for young audiences and entertainment brands seeking an unconventional regional voice.
