Author's note

Shiraz is a free Persian-inspired display font that reshapes Latin letters with towering uprights and the flowing structure of Arabic-script lettering. Deep hanging forms, broad curves, and abrupt changes in width give the alphabet a strongly decorative silhouette, with individual letters often resembling connected signs rather than conventional type.

As an ornamental title face, it can turn restaurant branding or food packaging into part of a Middle Eastern themed graphic concept. Its architectural height and sweeping shapes also suit cultural festival posters and travel publishing, where the lettering can echo decorative borders, arches, or regional patterns.
