Merriweather & Work Sans
A sturdy screen serif headline with a unfussy 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: Merriweather is the sturdy screen serif of the page, and Work Sans is the unfussy geometric sans that lets it stand out.
