Author's note

Masi Nihar by Raffi Kojian is a free Armenian display font with an exceptionally tall, narrow profile and a distinctly modern edge. Hairline curves meet broad vertical strokes, producing dramatic changes of weight across the lettering. Several forms end in clipped hooks or deep, sweeping bends.

Its elegant structure can lend fashion branding a refined, unconventional signature, yet the same elongated shapes also suit experimental music posters. The pronounced verticals make it equally relevant to magazine covers and cultural event graphics, especially when the lettering contributes a strong architectural pattern. In those settings, the alphabet can become part of the image itself, turning repeated strokes and open forms into a decorative framework.
