Balancing Trocchi with Audiowide

Build a contrast-first system where Trocchi leads and Audiowide keeps long-form content legible.

This pairing is engineered for teams that need a clear hierarchy without sacrificing brand voice. Trocchi brings slab, casual, old-style energy to hero units, pricing sections, and campaign headlines. Audiowide absorbs the heavy lifting for paragraphs, product storytelling, and UI labels with its techno, futuristic, sci-fi 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.

Trocchi thrives as a headline face thanks to its slab, casual, old-style qualities. Use weights 400–600 for crisp editorial lockups.
Audiowide excels in paragraphs and UI thanks to its techno, futuristic, sci-fi traits. Keep it between weights 400–600 for optimal readability.
Hierarchy guidance: run a 1:1.4 modular scale and reserve Trocchi for H1–H3 while Audiowide powers captions, body copy, and data tables.

Best-Fit Use Cases

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

Accessibility Notes

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

FAQs

Why does Trocchi make sense as the lead font?

Trocchi owns the emotional register of this system. Its slab, casual, old-style profile helps anchor campaign creative, meaning marketing and product teams can reuse the same voice without reinventing the scale.

Where should Audiowide show up?

Audiowide is the workhorse. Keep it in paragraphs, long-form editorial, knowledge bases, or anywhere legibility is non-negotiable. Its techno, futuristic, sci-fi 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.
