What a fantastic piece of work! Lunema Specimen truly stands out as a modern and stylish typeface with geometric contrasts and deep ink traps that make it highly legible even in small point sizes. It is evident that a lot of effort and research was put into this design, inspired by the san serif typefaces used in telephone books of the 1900s. It is amazing to see how such an old typeface style can be given a modern twist and still remain highly legible and distinctive. Truly, this is a great example of good design and a worthy winner of the A' Design Award.
