The Best Squarespace Fonts to Use in 2025
Scrolling through Squarespace’s font options can feel like stepping into a massive library with no guide—over 1,600 choices, endless scrolling, and way too many similar-sounding names (Cabin or Calluna, anyone?). While Squarespace offers built-in font pairings, they’re everywhere. Sticking with them means blending in rather than standing out.
So how do you pick the perfect font pairing without spending hours testing combinations? Let’s dive in!
Fonts do more than display words—they shape your brand’s personality, draw readers in, and guide them through your content. Typography trends shift quickly, so your fonts should feel fresh while still being true to your brand identity.
In 2025, we’re seeing a move toward bold, high-impact sans serifs that make a statement, leaving behind the delicate serifs that dominated in past years. But if you’re a die-hard serif girly, don’t worry—there are still plenty of elegant options that can bring sophistication to your brand. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your brand’s vibe and how you want to be perceived.
