Playfair Display & PT Serif
A high-contrast Didone headline with a even Russian text serif 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
This is a serif-on-serif pairing that avoids the usual mush — Playfair Display stays decorative up top while PT Serif stays legible in the body.
