Zilla Slab Highlight
Google Fonts · Typotheque · 2017
A striking inline display variant of Zilla Slab with a hollowed-out stroke effect that gives it a bold, retro-flavoured presence at large sizes.
About
Created by Typotheque for Mozilla's Zilla branding system, the Highlight cut applies a light inline through thick strokes, producing a distinctive layered look suited to posters, banners, and large-scale typographic statements. It works best when used sparingly alongside its parent Zilla Slab family rather than as a standalone text face. Its limited weight range and purely decorative nature make it a single-purpose tool rather than a versatile workhorse.
Classification
Zilla Slab Highlight is an inline decorative variant of Zilla Slab, featuring a hollow inline stroke effect cut through the letterforms to create a high-contrast, attention-grabbing display style. It is designed purely for large-scale headline use and carries a distinctive retro-techno character.
