5. Zara had their own
font especially
created for them.
Typography: Helvética

The Packaging,
Why is it unique to others?
As consumers, we can easily identify the signature
packaging for Zara. They have two main types of
carrier bags that represent their brand: the navy
carrier bag that they have in store and the cardboard
box with the reverse colours for online delivery.
Another aspect that we acknowledge of this brand is
the core colours that highlights who they are, i.e. the
dark grey, navy, the cardboard brown and the sleek
black.

promotions. Don’t advertise brand. Window dressers
once a month.
