Why it works

Two of the most-requested startup sans-serifs, arranged by what each does best: Sora's wide, squared geometry makes short headlines feel deliberate and engineered, while Manrope — narrower and more conventional in its letterforms — flows comfortably at paragraph length. The width difference does the hierarchical work a serif contrast normally would, so the design stays strictly sans while still reading in two clear registers.
