Here’s a photo of the actual size mockup. Because of the small physical size I didn’t want to make the Romaji (Latin script) any smaller so I opted to just let the spacing be tight sometimes. Since the scripts contrast so much I don’t find the tight fit to be a problem when reading. It was a super interesting learning experience #typography #japanese #multiscript #zen #buddhism
