I know it's not everyone's favourite face..and it IS used far too often..but does anyone have a good idea of what serif face would work nicely with Neutraface?
Thanks in advance!
If Neutraface is the display face, a modern (didone) would be a good text complement.
Or possibly a non-geo slab serif, e.g. Archer or Bodoni Egyptian.
If Neutraface is the text, you could try matching a modern where the hairline corresponds to the weight of the text monoline.
To see this effect, set up some 72 pt text in Scotch Modern Display in the type tester, and put the window next to a showing of Neutraface Light
But really, any true ("optically sized") display face with lots of fine detail would complement the strong personality and sparkle of Neutraface text.
House has shown their own Paperback in use with Neutraface.
Hi..context is a wedding invitation. I don't want to set ALL the text in Neutraface..just the RSVPs and the couple's names. The rest can be in another face...preferably serif - still have the programme to do and I don't envision the service notes in Neutraface!
Thanks for the suggestions..will look at them. At the moment I've used Mrs Eaves...for lack of something better.
