I am working on my portfolio website now, and I am trying to pick a font but I have no idea which one to use. All I know is that I am looking for a Sans-Serif font that leaves kind of a "raw" feeling, and by "raw", I mean something that inspire honesty, dynamism and simplicity ... Any suggestion is welcome.

The overall design is minimalistic ...

I really recommend Source Sans Pro. It's available on Google Fonts for free.

Other fonts on Google Fonts that I really prefer:


Montserrat (I like the thick feel of it, especially if all uppercase!)
Open Sans (Very popular for many webdesigners)
Droid Sans
Lato


It's also better for view to make the contrast between your headings and paragraphs higher. By this I mean you would for example make the heading uppercase and bold and the paragraph just normal. This is very efficiƫnt for reading and makes the viewer pay more attention to it.

This is just my opinion though :D!



This is how source sans pro looks like
