Why These Fonts Work Together
Source Serif 4 headlines sit naturally above Source Sans 3 in this editorial, modern pairing drawn from the same type family. The serif's sharp, contemporary cuts give articles a fresh voice, while the matching sans keeps the interface quiet and perfectly in tune. News-style blogs and magazine-like websites get a coherent, polished system from it.
- 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 600–800 vs. body weights of 400–600 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.
