Also been into Bitter (a Google Font) lately, and am thinking about using it for the Kickstarter video title slides:

Also really into Monocle's typography and layouts. Perhaps working some of these ideas into the product page could help us work out some good typeface options.

Plantin is their print serif. Not sure about web... Helvetica is their web sans, I think.

Vista Sans

Neutraface

NYT makes Georgia look good...

Merriweather (Google Font!)

[ohsk]

Raleway (Google Font!)

[ohsk]

Oxygen (Google Font!)

[ohsk]

Arimo (Google Font!)

[ohsk]

Lora (Google Font!)

I really like Neutraface and Raleway as sans-serifs! Might be partial to Raleway though because I used it on an old portfolio website. :monkey_face:

Also Lora is a really elegant serif...strikes me as editorial.

Okay, using Raleway and Lora. Checkout the M and W in Raleway. Also live!

MMMMMM. I'm liking it! I'm a stickler for K's, too. And this Raleway one is doing it for me.

But then again, maybe we should just fallback on Avenir and Georgia. I'm feeling lost.

font-family: 'Raleway', 'Avenir Next', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, serif;

ALL THE FALLBACK = CFPB DESIGN MANUAL. lol
