The best Poppins pairings
01 · Poppins + Lora
Design that makes the first impression last
Good type does its work quietly. The headline sets the voice, the body carries the reading, and the contrast between them tells the eye where to go first.
Poppins gives headlines a round, confident geometric look, and Lora is a balanced serif made for comfortable long reading on screen. A sans headline over a serif body is the editorial inversion: modern on top, bookish underneath.
02 · Poppins + Inter
Design that makes the first impression last
Good type does its work quietly. The headline sets the voice, the body carries the reading, and the contrast between them tells the eye where to go first.
Poppins gives headlines a round, confident geometric look, and Inter stays legible at small sizes thanks to its tall x-height. Two sans-serifs pair through contrast of weight and width: set the headline heavy and tight, the body regular and open.
03 · Poppins + Merriweather
Design that makes the first impression last
Good type does its work quietly. The headline sets the voice, the body carries the reading, and the contrast between them tells the eye where to go first.

Design that makes the first impression last

Poppins gives headlines a round, confident geometric look, and Lato is warm and highly readable in long passages. Two sans-serifs pair through contrast of weight and width: set the headline heavy and tight, the body regular and open.
