After the critique I was left with some very good advice on how better improve my signage system.I got advice on how i could simultaneously streamline my design and communicate my message more effectively.Simply put it was to add lines to indicate amount rather than have an entire separate sign to do so.
For the typefaces I first looked through the Arabic typefaces since they are limited in number and its easier to find a Latin typeface that can syntactically harmonize with Arabic than the other way around.After looking through all the dirty or (gasp!) stencil Arabic typefaces available in Linotype (yes every single one) it was down to 2 . Myopia and Taghiir.
I chose Myopia because Taghiir was too clean.
Then I went on to look at an english typface that can balance Myopia I looked through :
