Your portfolio is your typographic first impression. The fonts you choose communicate your aesthetic sensibility before a single project loads. Choose fonts that reflect your work's personality without upstaging it.
Portfolio typography should feel confident without being distracting. A strong display font for your name and headline positions you as a professional with a clear point of view. The body font needs to handle bios, project descriptions, and case study copy without demanding attention.
If your work is bold and graphic, try Bebas Neue or Archivo Black as a display font. If your work is refined and detail-oriented, Cormorant Garamond or Cinzel will signal that sensibility immediately.
Keep the colour palette minimal and let the type do the tonal work. One accent colour paired with well-chosen type is more effective than complex decorative systems.
