Systematizing Tinos & Rokkitt

Build a mono-category system where Tinos leads and Rokkitt keeps long-form content legible.

This pairing is engineered for teams that need a clear hierarchy without sacrificing brand voice. Tinos brings metric-compatible, times-new-roman, print energy to hero units, pricing sections, and campaign headlines. Rokkitt absorbs the heavy lifting for paragraphs, product storytelling, and UI labels with its slab, geometric, display texture and dependable rhythm. Together they create a typography stack that scales from high-impact landing pages to dense documentation without retooling your CSS tokens.

Tinos thrives as a headline face thanks to its metric-compatible, times-new-roman, print qualities. Use weights 700–900 for crisp editorial lockups.
Rokkitt excels in paragraphs and UI thanks to its slab, geometric, display traits. Keep it between weights 400–600 for optimal readability.
Hierarchy guidance: run a 1:1.2 modular scale and reserve Tinos for H1–H3 while Rokkitt powers captions, body copy, and data tables.

Best-Fit Use Cases

  • High-growth SaaS landing pages that require metric-compatible hero statements with trustworthy product copy.
  • Editorial magazines and thought-leadership hubs where Tinos can dramatize pull quotes while Rokkitt keeps 1,500-word essays skimmable.
  • Conversion funnels or onboarding flows that need Rokkitt's slab voice to balance Tinos's attention-grabbing display.

Accessibility Notes

Maintain a minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio for Rokkitt body copy and loosen letter-spacing to 0.01em for uppercase Tinos moments. Pairing different categories demands disciplined color pairing—test both light and dark themes to ensure Rokkitt does not bloom at small sizes.

FAQs

Why does Tinos make sense as the lead font?

Tinos owns the emotional register of this system. Its metric-compatible, times-new-roman, print profile helps anchor campaign creative, meaning marketing and product teams can reuse the same voice without reinventing the scale.

Where should Rokkitt show up?

Rokkitt is the workhorse. Keep it in paragraphs, long-form editorial, knowledge bases, or anywhere legibility is non-negotiable. Its slab, geometric, display 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.
