Website for internationally recognized contemporary artist Kamrooz Aram who engages the complicated relationship between traditional non-Western art and Western Modernism. Through a variety of forms including painting, collage, drawing and installation, Aram has found the potential for image-making to function critically in its use as a tool for a certain renegotiation of history.

It was vital to find a typeface that could be equally clear, confident and supportive. Both Atlas and its monospaced counterpart Atlas Typewriter have an optimistic tone and it helps that this type series stems from Dutch Modernism, as Atlas is rooted in Mercator (Amsterdam Type Foundry, 1959).
