Hello,

I'm designing a wedding invitation with Reina.
I've found difficulties in finding another good font with a x height that match Reina's and looks good with it.
It will be good also if the font to pair with Reina had several weights.

thanks very much! :))))

(sorry for the bad English)

What is a good serif font to pair with Futura? I'm using Futura Std Heavy/Bold to be more specific. I've been on the website typeconnection.com and it says that ITC Century is a good one but I'm not sure yet if that's the best right now. Does anyone have any suggestions? Preferably fonts that could be found on the Adobe Font Folio Package because that's what I have access to.

Hi folks,

Appreciate anyone who chips in to this. Fleshing out a branding/identity project and looking for pairing a serif typeface with Akkurat:

http://lineto.com/The+Fonts/Font+Categories/Text+Fonts/Akkurat/

Akkurat is already established, used in the logo and has been used for body text. It is for a design agency. The challenge I've had is choosing a serif face to partner it. Why? When creating documents with longer passages of text, I'd rather not use Akkurat for absolutely everything. A lot of the clients are Universities and in the Education sector, and I always feel they prefer serifs as well (albeit ungrounded research).

Hi all !
I would be very pleased to get some advice and suggestions about the font pairing and global appearance of this combination. At the moment, it is just a start on a business card. The company is specialized in high-end microelectronics and wants to contrast radically from the other companies in their sector... I made some boards with different variations and identity elements, but I need to know what you are thinkning about those two simple lines : logo and font pairing... Thank you by advance to all of you !

Does anyone have a suggestion for a body font that will pair well with a headline made in Knockout ?

Preferably:
a) a simple clean, legible sans (e.g. helvetica or news gothic)
b) a beautiful, pretty serif (e.g. sabon or georgia)

The headlines will be using one of the Knockout styles 26/46/66 or 27 /47/67

thankyou!

I'm looking for body fonts that pair well with these heading fonts:

News Gothic Condensed Bold

News Gothic Extra Condensed Bold
http://www.fontshop.com/fonts/singles/bitstream/news_gothic_bold_extra_condensed_ot/

Any suggestions would be great. As an aside, should the body serif also be condensed, or is it fine to pair a condensed sans headline with a non-condensed body serif.

Thankyou

Hello,

I also use Slate (sans)

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi,

Would anybody be able to help me, I need a typeface that will pair well with Hiragino Kaku Gothic stdN in a logo? It's the one with the little spurs/serifs.

Thanks

Hi, I am a relatively new designer given the monstrous task of creating branding guidelines for my company. We're very much stuck with Proxima Nova as our main font (it is used in Logo specifically). Which I don't mind - but I need help pairing a complementary serif font - specifically for use as a body copy (such as paragraphs in employee handbooks, press releases - printed materials).

Any suggestions? (examples would be nice too)

Hey everyone im working on a project that involves creating a typographic logo that consists of the site title and the slogan. I really love the way that Calluna works for the Site title, but im having a hard time coming up with a good font for the slogan.

Calluna + Museo Sans is the best combonation ive been able to come up with...

If you think its necessary to use a font other than Calluna I'm definitely willing to switch, id just need a reccomendation.

Also if you would reccommend a different Layout id defenitely Consider it.

Thanks!

Hey guys,
I feel like I'm starting to get a fairly decent handle on font pairings, but I'm really kinda stuck on working with Letter Gothic. I'm trying to find a sans that will contrast the computer stone age look of Letter Gothic (like Futura vs courier), or give a little bit of the terry jones/ID magazine look. Is it also possible to use a serif against the slabby monospaced LG? Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. Cheers,

I'm narrowing down a type recommendation, and now I'd like to see something more natural than a specimen sheet. have any of your critical eyes found these two faces in use:

• OurType’s Parry
• FF Legato

I am trying to create a retro Soviet/Communist look.

Agency FB seems versatile enough to cover everything except body text and small stuff.

I found ParaType's "Textbook", which is based on a Soviet-era typeface, but it's a bit too geometric and doesn't seem to match Agency.

Any suggestions?

Have managed to persuade a client to reduce their corporate typeface from the awkward Fago range down to just using FagoExBold as a headline, and pairing this with Akkurat.

This works well to contrast the Character of the Fago headline font with a precise sans. Problem is Akkurat is too condensed for the aging design director as body copy, and does not read as comfortably as a text font. I have tried a -25 kerning and this seems to help.

But he is adamant the new Founders Grotesk is a better pairing for Fago! To me they seem to both have too much character to be seen together, and the clean nature of the Akkurat is a great contrast.

Any thoughts on how to make Akkurat work as body copy better? Or on the pairing choice?

Hi All,

Did I see a post for font pairings for Disturbance? If I'm not nuts and I did see it - it seems to have disappeared...

Does anyone remember it, and if you did, do you recall what the font pairings were?

It appears I'll be using Disturbance for a wordmark and have gone through a slew of pairing fonts for the tagline - nothing thrills me, so I thought I'd take a gander at the forum suggestions, but now can't find the darn post.

Cheers!

Hi

I am in the process of building a website setted in Museo http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/museo.html .

I will embed the font with @font-face so no need for sifr and the likes.

I have a couple of questions for you experts : )

First of all, I am looking for a good companion italic for the font (it misses one), what do you think of museo slab http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/museoslab.html ? Could it fit?

Second, do you think Museo can be a good font for body text or is it best to limit its use to titels and short bursts of text?

Third, in case you think the font is not suited for body text, could be museo sans http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/museosans.html a decent one?

Thanks
