Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Nubico.
The word spans the sheet and the drawing is a geometric capital display at a light weight: the N is drawn as an inverted arch, the O is a broad circle, and the strokes are even with rounded ends, which gives a minimal face one unusual decision to remember it by. That construction sets a size floor, because a hairline with rounded ends fades quickly on uncoated stock, and the plate sets the word large enough that the arch reads. The charcoal ground gives the pale grey just enough contrast, and the tracked line above and the two notes at the foot carry the style, the studio and the styles included. Because the strokes are thin, the face suits a wordmark, a cover and a screen at display sizes rather than small print.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Nubico’s stroke geometry.
Wordmark for a studio
A thin rounded display gives a studio a mark that reads as drawn, and the inverted-arch N makes a short name memorable. One unusual letter is enough to be remembered.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Set the mark at 17 pt on a card, 95 mm on a wall and 11 pt in a footer, keeping the hairline uncut. Keep one colour and clear space equal to the cap height.
Pre-production check
Check the 11 pt footer on uncoated paper, where a hairline can fill; keep the size above 12 pt. Confirm the wall mark reads at eight metres and that the arch stays open.
Cover for a design title
A thin geometric title gives a cover air, and the round O lets a short word hold a wide measure. Air is what a design cover needs most.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Set the title at 90 mm cap height across 205 mm, the subtitle in a 9 pt sans, and the date at 8 pt. Print one ink on a coated stock and keep 22 mm margins.
Pre-production check
Check the title at 90 mm, where a rounded end can look soft; keep it consistent. Confirm the 8 pt date survives lamination and that the title clears the trim.
Sign for a minimal wedding
A thin rounded face keeps a modern sign calm, and the wide letters fill a board with one greeting. A quiet sign suits a quiet ceremony.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A2 board: the greeting at 75 mm cap height, the names at 35 mm, and the date at 16 mm. Keep 32 mm margins and paint one colour on a pale board. Leave 40 mm of wall above the board for air.
Pre-production check
Check the board at four metres, where a hairline can fade in daylight; keep the weight up. Confirm the 16 mm date reads from the door and that the names clear the border.
