Select typefaces that complement each other from "summary" of The Non-designer's Design Book by Robin Williams

When choosing typefaces for a design project, it is important to select ones that work well together. This means choosing typefaces that complement each other in terms of style, weight, and overall look. The goal is to create a cohesive and harmonious design that is easy to read and visually appealing. One way to ensure that typefaces complement each other is to choose fonts that are from the same family or have similar characteristics. For example, pairing a serif font with a sans-serif font can create a nice contrast while still maintaining a sense of cohesiveness. It is also important to consider the overall tone and style of the design when selecting typefaces. Different typefaces can convey different moods and emotions, so it is crucial to choose ones that align with the message you are trying to communicate. For example, a sleek and modern sans-serif font may be more appropriate for a tech company, while a traditional serif font may be better suited for a law firm. In addition to style and tone, it is important to pay attention to the weight and size of the typefaces you choose. Mixing typefaces that are too similar in weight can create a jarring effect, while using typefaces that are too different in size can make the design look unbalanced. By selecting typefaces that are similar in weight and size, you can create a more harmonious and visually pleasing design.
