Crimson Text & Rubik
A old-style reading serif headline with a soft-cornered geometric sans body.
Contrast is the whole idea
Two faces, two jobs
A pairing fails when both faces are asking for the same attention.
Why it works
The pairing works because the two faces never compete: Crimson Text is the old-style reading serif of the page, and Rubik is the soft-cornered geometric sans that lets it stand out.
