Narrow sans-serif header font recommendation?

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi everyone,

I'd like to ask for some advice on ideas for a nice narrow san-serif font for headers (top of book page) that would compliment a Dolly body text (see image below), and would work well for a casual/fun/conversational book.

Thanks in advance!

Alan

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I mean narrow in the sense that you can fit more words into the header. An example would be Interstate.

My original post might be a bit vague, so here are a few examples of the kind of font that I have in mind (coolvetica top, bloomsburg bottom).

Neither of those fonts strikes me as being especially narrow. The first, however, to me looks like the letters are crammed in too close together for easy reading. I rather like the second choice, and it seems to balance well with the visual weight of the body text.
