The best Prata pairings
01 · Prata + Lato
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.
Prata sets elegant, high-contrast Didone headlines, and Lato is warm and highly readable in long passages. A serif over a sans-serif is the classic pairing: the change of structure makes the hierarchy obvious at a glance.

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.

Using Prata on a website
Sizes
Prata is a headline face: use it from about 28px up, for headings, hero lines and short labels, and set paragraphs in a calmer partner.
Spacing
At large sizes, set line height between 1.0 and 1.2 and tighten letter spacing slightly (around -0.01em to -0.02em); in all capitals, loosen it instead (around +0.02em to +0.05em).
Loading
Prata comes in a single weight, so there is only one file to load; do not fake bold with font-weight, which makes the browser smear the letters. Self-hosting with next/font, or font-display: swap with the Google Fonts CSS, keeps text visible while it loads.
Prata is free on Google Fonts, where you can see every weight and style it comes in.
