About this font

Shanti is a sans-serif font with a single regular weight and normal style. Its uncomplicated format makes it suitable for readable text where consistency matters more than a broad range of typographic options. It may work well when you want a clean, approachable look across everyday layouts and modestly sized blocks of content.

Best suited for: Use Shanti for short paragraphs, captions, labels, simple navigation, and informal headings. It can also fit personal websites, small editorial projects, invitations, and basic interface text. Since only one weight is available, keep the structure clear through spacing, size, and layout rather than relying on multiple levels of bold emphasis.

Design considerations: The regular weight and normal style provide a consistent foundation, but they offer no built-in weight contrast. Establish hierarchy with noticeably different sizes, generous spacing, or restrained use of color. For longer passages, test the font at the intended reading size and line length, then adjust leading to keep the page comfortable and easy to scan.

Pairing guidance: To add contrast, pair Shanti with a serif that has clearly defined proportions for titles or pull quotes. A display face with a more expressive shape can also create distinction without competing at small sizes. If you prefer a unified system, choose a second sans-serif with several weights and use it selectively for emphasis, navigation, or stronger headings.
