What font does The Guardian use? Guardian Text Sans.

The Guardian's website sets its type in Guardian Text Sans, on a light #FFFFFF canvas with #121212 text and a #052962 accent. Copy the palette and fonts, or a ready prompt to build something original in this style with Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable or v0.

      The Guardian fonts and type scale

      The Guardian's website sets both headings and body text in Guardian Text Sans. Body text is 17px, section headings 24px and the largest display type 51px, at weight 700. If you can't use Guardian Text Sans, ask your AI for the closest free match and keep the sizes and weights.

      How do I build a site that looks like The Guardian with AI?

      Open the Prompt tab above, change its first line to what you are building, and paste it into Lovable, v0, Bolt, Claude Code or Cursor. For a whole project, install the Claude skill or the Cursor rule instead, so every screen keeps the style. Build something original: keep The Guardian's look, not its name, logo or copy.
