Kaushan Script excels in paragraphs and UI thanks to its brush, uncut, rough traits. Keep it between weights 400–600 for optimal readability.

FAQs

Why does BioRhyme make sense as the lead font?

BioRhyme owns the emotional register of this system. Its slab, expanded, wide profile helps anchor campaign creative, meaning marketing and product teams can reuse the same voice without reinventing the scale.

Where should Kaushan Script show up?

Kaushan Script is the workhorse. Keep it in paragraphs, long-form editorial, knowledge bases, or anywhere legibility is non-negotiable. Its brush, uncut, rough qualities reduce fatigue on dense layouts.

Does this pairing support complex localization?

Yes—both families are available on Google Fonts with generous glyph coverage. Test cyrillic/latin accents early, but most Latin-based locales and UI patterns are fully supported.
