Font Pairing Tasting

30 minMonthly

Format: Analyze how fonts affect "feel."

Quick Knowledge:

  • Serif fonts (e.g., Georgia): Traditional, trustworthy, editorial feel
  • Sans-serif fonts (e.g., Inter): Modern, clean, digital-first
  • Display/decorative fonts: Use only for headings, never for body text
  • Pairing principle: Use a maximum of 2-3 fonts

Steps: Take a screenshot of any app, use Figma or PowerPoint to replace all fonts with completely different ones (e.g., swap Inter for Comic Sans). Observe how dramatically the "feel" changes β€” even though the content is exactly the same.

Core Takeaway: Typography is design.
