Can't decide. Facit, Ratio or Tisa?

   Can't decide which typeface to use on headings.

   I really like Facit. It's so clean, looks a lot like FF Din (which I love). But it's very very different from the text typeface (Tisa).

   Ratio has a bit more character (no pun intended) than Facit, I really like the more humanist lowercase 'g'. But I wish it had some titling figures to use along uppercase characters.

   I love Tisa for text. I also like it for headings. But I feel like having a sans-serif for headings.

   What do you think?

   Facit is very nice on the eyes, but in my opinion stands second-best to Ratio. Ratio shares the humanist lowercase "g" with your FF Tisa body text and seems more compatible IMHO.

   Tisa is a gorgeous typeface but I am seeing it being used everywhere now. Go with Ratio!

   I'm biased because I love Tisa, so I must say I enjoy option #1, the mix between Facit and Tisa.

   The contrast between Facit and Tisa is greater than Ratio and Tisa. Ratio being more Humanist than Facit. I think the contrast is good.

   Agree on using a sans-serif for the heading and Ratio fits really well with the text "feel".

   So, +1 for Ratio here as well. :)

   I love the titles with Ratio but the dates look awesome with Facit.

   Thanks for all the feedback, guys (and lady).

   I agree with Tiffany. Facit has a greater contrast with Tisa, compared to Ratio. I think that's good, but I'm starting to like Ratio a bit more now, as I think that Facit looks too much "industrial" to what I want.

   I'll solve the date thing and try Ratio first.

   What about the scale of heading v. text then? Perhaps it needs more or less?

   Trying Ratio for headi... Unlike the previous, this is a non-scaled screenshot. I'm liking where this is headed so far. Do you think there's enough contrast between first-level headi... June 03, 2010

    I'm voting Facit, but maybe with a slightly heavier weight?
