WHY IT WORKS
Structure meets readability

The in-house pairing: Quattrocento's wide serif headlines over its companion Quattrocento Sans body. The two were drawn together to share proportions and width, so they sit as one coordinated system — you get serif-over-sans class contrast for hierarchy with no risk of a mismatch, because they're literally designed to go together.

Where it shines

Editorial, classic brand and long-form layouts wanting a coherent serif-and-sans family from one designer.

Where to be careful

The two are close in spirit, so push Quattrocento heading weight and size so the serif clearly leads its sans sibling.
