Same hero composition, six running-font candidates. Below: the chunky display sans (Sam Fender block) and the italic display serif (1975 quiet moment) shown as their own picks. Try each and notice what *feels* like you, not what reads as "objectively correct" — that's the whole point.

Suisse Int'l note: paid commercial typeface from Swiss Typefaces. Adobe Fonts covers most CC plans; outside that it's ~$300–800 to license desktop + webfont depending on weights and traffic. If it's not installed on your system, this page falls back to Inter — which reads close-but-not-identical. Geist (free) is closer in feel than Inter if you want a no-license path.

When you commit, update tokens.css --font-sans, and optionally --font-display-sans / --font-display-serif to match the picks above.
