Dialogue ME is a multi-script typeface merging Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew through a conversation between tradition and post-digital brutalism. Designed by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini, Andrea Tartarelli, Oded Ezer (hebrew glyphs), and Murad Alshawareb (arabic consulting), it balances classical calligraphic roots with pixel-perfect aesthetics. Each script retains its identity while harmonizing visually. Adaptable across weights, it blends display elegance with high readability, pushing typographic boundaries through cross-cultural design innovation.

Zetafonts is an independent digital type foundry based in the heart of Florence, Italy. The foundry has been out of the 20-years long experience of its founders (Francesco Canovaro, Debora Manetti and Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini,) in typographical branding. It aims to produce typefaces that bridge the gap between practical and beautiful, providing finely crafted and innovative yet solid design tools for graphic designers, art directors and brand managers worldwide.
