Combining typefaces is more of an art than a science, but there are many aspects to keep in mind to avoid an unholy union — proportion, x-height, weight, and pedigree, to name a few. So what’s the best way to ensure compatibility? Take advantage of a full-featured family with serif and sans versions tailored by the type designer to work together.
Most of the typefaces on this page are sans and serif companions, some are sans and slab, and a few have all three options or other display variants.
