DM Serif Display thrives as a headline face thanks to its high-contrast, headline, impactful qualities. Use weights 400–600 for crisp editorial lockups.
Enriqueta excels in paragraphs and UI thanks to its slab, strong, headline traits. Keep it between weights 400–600 for optimal readability.

FAQs

Why does DM Serif Display make sense as the lead font?

DM Serif Display owns the emotional register of this system. Its high-contrast, headline, impactful profile helps anchor campaign creative, meaning marketing and product teams can reuse the same voice without reinventing the scale.

Where should Enriqueta show up?

Enriqueta is the workhorse. Keep it in paragraphs, long-form editorial, knowledge bases, or anywhere legibility is non-negotiable. Its slab, strong, headline 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.
