Mix up different weights and sizes between the two neutral families to establish hierarchy within your designs. Another classic font pairing, this time between an 18th century Old Style serif and a lateth century Humanist sans serif.
Myriad is famously used in Apple's corporate communication, as well as in the Rolls Royce logo. Nova Mono is only available in one style, but that style is ideal for making a statement. Pair it with versatile sans serif Lato to stop things getting too crazy. Time for another superfamily, this time from Dutch foundry exljbris. Fontin has been designed specifically for use at small sizes, and features loose spacing and a tall x-height. Fontin Sans makes an ideal partner for it.
Two typefaces both have plenty of personality, but bond perfectly. An Old Style serif typeface, Minion was designed in but inspired by late Renaissance-era type.
Although technically a sans-serif, Poppl-Laudatio's subtle flared details give it a quirky edge. The Serif and Sans versions make a smart font pairing, but there are also other variations to play around with, including Sans Narrow and Mono. This pairing is particularly effective when Trade Gothic is used in its Bold weight for headlines, to set off Jan Tschichold's classic Old Style serif face for text.
Both typefaces are highly readable, with a tall x-height, and combine well together to give a pleasing effect. This pair of sans serifs pair nicely to create a trendy, industrial look.
Gilroy's geometric style in ExtraBold weight is ideal for headers, while Jura Light has a wiry, structured shape that offsets it nicely. The combination is ideal for adding a strong, technical feel to your creative projects. In the s, how about looking back at the s with this typeface from designer Sol Hess for Monotype?
Our pick for a perfect type pairing is Orpheus Pro from Canada Type. This typeface was planned as a new version of Walter Tiemann's Orpheus and its italic companion font Euphorion, but ended up being much more elaborate — if you're using it for display purposes, there are plenty of extensions, alternates, swashes, and ligatures to explore. Dedicated display typeface Playfair Display sports high-contrast that exude old-fashioned charm.
Source Sans Pro is a modern sans-serif designed specifically for use in user interfaces. Together, they make a perfect pairing of old and new, with the understated Source Sans Pro letting Playfair Display really shine. FontFont's superfamily Scala started with a serif version in , followed in 92 by its sans serif companion.
With small caps, various ligatures and old-style figures, this family is hugely versatile and widely used in publishing. Its clean, condensed letterforms make Bebas Neue an excellent choice for headlines. It's free to download and open source — so you can edit it to your own particular needs through the GitHub repo , if you have the desire and skills to do so.
Montserrat offers a nice contrast; especially the Light version. One of the classic slab serifs, Rockwell was designed in the s and has a huge amount of personality and attention-grabbing potential when used bold. The much more conservative serif Bembo is neutral but versatile, making for a perfectly contrasting font pairing. Myriad and Minion have already cropped up in different font pairings elsewhere in this list, but this combination is definitely worth a look.
The shouty, ultra-bold Black version of the former and the text weight of the latter can help you create a clear hierarchy in your designs.
