Pairing Strategy

Systematizing Yeseva One & Forum

Anchor the expressive personality of Yeseva One with the utilitarian clarity of Forum.

This pairing is engineered for teams that need a clear hierarchy without sacrificing brand voice. Yeseva One brings serif, feminine, display energy to hero units, pricing sections, and campaign headlines. Forum absorbs the heavy lifting for paragraphs, product storytelling, and UI labels with its roman, classic, antique 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.

Yeseva One thrives as a headline face thanks to its serif, feminine, display qualities. Use weights 400–600 for crisp editorial lockups.
Forum excels in paragraphs and UI thanks to its roman, classic, antique traits. Keep it between weights 400–600 for optimal readability.
Hierarchy guidance: run a 1:1.2 modular scale and reserve Yeseva One for H1–H3 while Forum powers captions, body copy, and data tables.

Best-Fit Use Cases

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

Accessibility Notes

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

FAQs

Why does Yeseva One make sense as the lead font?

Yeseva One owns the emotional register of this system. Its serif, feminine, display profile helps anchor campaign creative, meaning marketing and product teams can reuse the same voice without reinventing the scale.

Where should Forum show up?

Forum is the workhorse. Keep it in paragraphs, long-form editorial, knowledge bases, or anywhere legibility is non-negotiable. Its roman, classic, antique 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.
