Zetafonts: LETTERS FOR THE FUTURE.
ZETAFONTS WILL BE REPRESENTED BY CREATIVE DIRECTOR COSIMO LORENZO PANCINI
ZETAFONTS.COM IS AN INDEPENDENT TYPE FOUNDRY LOCATED IN FLORENCE, ITALY, FOUNDED IN 2001 BY COSIMO LORENZO PANCINI, FRANCESCO CANOVARO, AND DEBORA MANETTI. THEY BLEND ITALY’S RICH TYPOGRAPHIC HERITAGE WITH MODERN TRENDS AND POP CULTURE AESTHETICS, CREATING AWARD-WINNING TYPEFACES, HISTORICAL REVIVALS, AND BESPOKE FONTS FOR MAJOR BRANDS. THEIR CATALOG SUPPORTS EUROPEAN LANGUAGES AND NON-LATIN EXTENSIONS, SETTING THEM APART GLOBALLY. THROUGH TYPE CAMPUS AND FIGHT FOR KINDNESS, THEY PROMOTE TYPOGRAPHIC EDUCATION AND SOCIAL GOOD CONNECTING WITH INTERNATIONAL DESIGN SCHOOLS, CREATIVE EVENTS, DESIGN AWARDS AND MAGAZINES.
COSIMO LORENZO PANCINI IS A TYPE DESIGNER, GRAPHIC ARTIST, AND EDUCATOR. SINCE BUYING HIS FIRST TYPEFACE (AN ARNOLD BOECKLIN LETRASET TRANSFER) AT THE AGE OF NINE, HE HAS CONTINUED TO EXPERIMENT WITH LETTERS BOTH WRITTEN AND DRAWN.
HE WILL GUIDE YOU ON A JOURNEY WHERE TYPOGRAPHY, DINOSAURS, FOOTBALL MATCHES, TIME TRAVEL, AND PERSONAL OBSESSIONS ANSWER THE NEED FOR DESIGNERS TO FIND MEANING IN THEIR WORK WITHOUT LOSING THEIR SOULS.
COSIMO WILL SPEAK AT THE FORWARD FESTIVAL VIENNA IN OCTOBER. NEXT TO him, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HEAR CREATIVES LIKE Birgit Palma, Mr. Bingo, Cihan Tamti AND MANY MORE.
