Why These Fonts Work Together
Merriweather above Roboto reads as a professional, corporate pairing that favors substance over flair. The serif's confident presence gives headlines authority, while Roboto's ubiquitous neutrality keeps the body easy to read and easy to skim. Company blogs and institutional websites benefit from its no-nonsense reliability.
- A serif display face leads the page and a sans-serif body face carries the reading — the shape contrast draws the eye to headlines first.
- Heading weights of 700 vs. body weights of 400 make the hierarchy readable at a glance without extra styling.
- The pairing keeps x-heights and proportions compatible, so switching between heading and body mid-sentence still feels coherent.
