Concordant- A concordant relationship occurs, when you only use one type family without much variety in style, size, weight. It tends to be formal and sometimes dull.
Conflicting- A conflicting relationship occurs, when typefaces that are similar in style, size and weight. The similarities are disturbing, because they are not the same ( concordant) , but neither are they different ( contrasting).
Contrasting- When you make typeface really clearly distinctly different from each other. These are visually appealing and they are exciting to look at.
