Playfair Display & Work Sans
A high-contrast Didone 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
Set Playfair Display at display size and Work Sans everywhere else — the high-contrast Didone headline carries the personality while the unfussy geometric sans body carries the reading.
