    Aden, Arabija is a Slovenian edition of Paul Nizan’s Aden Arabie (1931) with a foreword by Jean-Paul Sartre. It was translated from the French by Marko Crnković, designed by Domen Fras and published by Totaliteta.

    The cover design includes Spektra, a variable typeface designed by Type Salon (Alja Herlah & Krista Likar), using upright and italic style. Signifier by Klim Type Foundry is used on the cover with its italic style. Its roman is used as the body face.

    Spektra and Signifier work well together as a combination of dark, yet soft letter shapes with robust, brutalist forms.
