What happens if you replace a ball terminal with a sport ball? Pétanque is a display sans serif with rational geometry and irrational pizzazz. Its distinctive feature is to play with the exact same circle on lowercase and uppercase letters, as well as on diacritic and punctuation marks. Inspired by the early experimental stages of Fat Faces (Robert Thorne & William Thorowgood circa 1820), Pétanque characters are drawn so all the balls can fit in a fun yet judicious way.
