I know of a situation where a book designer was using Interstate and the author objected that it was too heavy. The designer switched the text to Walbaum and kept Interstate for the title/headings.

I’d suggest you consider the serif font as the body text and interstate for quotes and intros. Interstate isn’t that easy on the eyes for running text.

The Serif maybe? dr

Hi,

I’m currently designing an annual report, set in Interstate for both headings as well as body text. At the moment I’m looking for a serif typeface, maybe in italic to use for quotes, introduction texts and so on. If you have any thoughts on which serif that would work well as a delicate supplemant to Interstate, it would be very much appreciated.
