Font pairing as a subheading of Neutraface C

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, this is my first post here! I'm designing a website and I am looking for some tips of a good pairing for Neutraface Condensed. I'm using it as a header and it'd be nice to have a good contrast. Any ideas? The website page is revistausina.com/pagina-inicial

Also, at the menu I thought Etica would be a good pairing, but it's too similar and perhaps the thin glyphs aren't good to read. Do you guys agree?

Thanks a lot!

So many variables to take into consideration, for example:

  • what typeface is used for the body text?
  • what is the typical length of a subheading?
  • Neutraface was chosen more for its clean and technical qualities or for its retro vibe? 
  • the choice of a condensed width is purely aesthetic or there are space constrains?
  • there are budget constrains as well?

Yes. Also, a good rule of thumb is to use a limited number of different typefaces, both for design and website load reasons.

Hi! Yes, there are some space contrains, that's one of the reasons why Neutraface Condensed. Also, it was chosen more for it's geometric aspect. I have Adelle Sans and Regular here. Do you think they go well together with Neutraface? I'm using it now as a body text and subheading, but I'm not sure if the size is adequate, maybe a larger size would look better. What do you think? Here is the link of the page I'm designing: https://revistausina.com/pagina-inicial/

Thanks a lot!
