Anton and Inter font pairing
Tall, condensed impact headings with a clean contemporary sans.
Good pairings feel inevitable. Great ones set the tone before a single word is read.
Typography sets the tone before a single word is read. A strong pairing creates clear hierarchy while feeling like one consistent voice across every page. This paragraph is set in Inter, while the headline uses Anton. Numbers like 0123456789, punctuation “quotes” — and ampersands & — reveal a lot about how two typefaces get along.
Look for contrast in structure and harmony in proportion: similar x-heights, compatible widths and a shared sense of rhythm. Bold text and italic text should feel natural, too.
Why this pairing works
Two sans serifs can work when they differ in structure: Anton carries the headings, Inter handles text, and hierarchy comes from weight and size. Inter ships in 9 weights, so you can build captions, buttons and emphasis without adding another family.
