Instrument Serif · Subhead

Great typography starts with a great pair. Sawarabi Mincho carries authority in the headline while Instrument Serif keeps body copy comfortable to read. Together they give a design a coherent voice across sizes, weights and contexts — from hero sections to long-form articles.

Why it works

A Serif display face contrasts naturally with another Serif body face — clear hierarchy, no muddled mood. Both are free from Google Fonts under OFL/Apache and safe for commercial use.
