Why it works
Familjen Grotesk's warm, subtly quirky grotesque gives headings a grown-up, Scandinavian friendliness, and Lora's brushed serif keeps the body warm and readable. Both faces lean humanist, so the pairing feels of a single, welcoming voice, with the heading's gentle character setting the tone and the serif making longer passages a pleasure to sit with.
