You gotta check this out pretty amazing! i was actually surprised by this book amazing stuff! so many talented artists in the Arab world that surprisingly unknown we have good shit here!

Arabesque investigates the current creative potential of the Arab World and Persia. The book collects examples of recent innovative and groundbreaking design work that is inspired by the richness of the region’s visual culture. In addition to a wide range of Arabic fonts and typefaces, it presents graphic design, modern calligraphy, logos and illustration by artists from Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Lebanon. Supplemented by texts that describe the environments in which the designers and artists work, Arabesque also includes a CD-ROM with the Arabic inspired Latin typeface created by Ben Wittner and Sascha Thoma.



Also features graffiti, graphic design, logos, and illustrations by young designers and activists from Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arabs of Emirates, and Lebanon; which is complimented by selected projects by Western designers.

for more information and see the images either find the book it's only sold in Europe though or check the website
