“Balance, spacing and the placement of visuals within the written word ensures the quick connection. The use of positive space, negative space, the form of the typeface and the shape of the visual elements creates simplicity, balance, readability, and prevents the elements from competing for attention, delivering a quick read.”

The 90º angle, hard edges, and the form of the graphic need to work with the circular shape of the letter. With both elements sharing rounded, open spaces, that challenge becomes easier.
