Author's note

ZicZac by Nuno Dias is a free techno display font with broad, tightly fitted letters and a sturdy geometric build. Rounded outer corners soften the squared forms, and rectangular openings give the type a machine-cut look. The low, extended silhouette feels distinctly futuristic.

Packaging is an especially good medium for its solid shapes, particularly on electronics, gaming accessories, and streetwear labels. The lettering also suits music posters, digital graphics, and signage for technology events, but its clearest role is in branding for products with an industrial, arcade-influenced identity.
