Design Solution
Logo Concept - The ‘Z’ and Flight Icon We chose the letter ‘Z’ as the main element of the logo, representing the brand name and serving as a powerful symbol of uniqueness, strength, and the start of every journey. The ‘Z’ is stylized to form an upward diagonal path, embodying the excitement and anticipation of travel and exploration. Integrated within the ‘Z’ is a minimalist flight icon, symbolizing freedom, movement, and progress. This element visually represents the idea of "boundless skies" and the thrill of venturing into new destinations, encapsulating the brand’s promise to offer seamless travel experiences. Typography - Modern and Clean The font chosen for "ZAP" is modern and bold, evoking professionalism while maintaining a sleek, approachable appearance.
