the winter [cup]

أجمل شتاء في العالم

A hot cup for Eid Al Etihad that still reads as Kolla: the UAE's own winter line, set in Thmanyah with the madd, held in our brackets. Five directions, each designed flat, built as a 3D cup, then shot on the shelf.

The line

The world’s most beautiful winter.

أجمل شتاء في العالم is the country’s own winter call, so the cup speaks it in Arabic first. Thmanyah Serif Display carries it, with one stretch per line on شتاء, the word that matters, the way the logo stretches attention onto [Kolla].

Our bracket rule crosses into Arabic: the words outside stay calm, the bracketed word gets the weight and the madd.

شتاء with short, medium and long stretch

The stretch · المدّ — plain, one tatweel, three tatweels. The cups use the three-tatweel stretch on the hero word only.
