I am working on a MVP and am going for an elegant look. I have the <p> in Georgia 22px but would like something a little less common. Georgia is a nice font but it is everywhere.
My current main fonts are:
p { font-family: Georgia, Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", Times, "Times New Roman", serif;
font-size: 22px; }
h2 { font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 22px; }
Has anyone found a font combination with an elegant, "classical" look?
Edited: for spacing
- leephillips 13y agoHave a look at this book: http://practicaltypography.com/ http://practicaltypography.com/
- ScottWhigham 13y agoBut it says in the opening salvo, "The fastest, easiest, and most visible improvement you can make to your typography is to ignore the fonts that came free with your computer... and buy a professional font". Not quite "in the spirit" of the OP!
