Cafe.no

Good design should be fun to use. Starting from a basic need to read or understand something Cafe.no designs a solution. With a view to the fjord working from Kampen in Oslo, ideas are shaped into a workable solution. Being able to read on a phone or read on a watch necessitates good design. And being able to communicate across cultures creates a demand for cross language typefaces and user interfaces. Cafe.no has created a method for designing typefaces that follows traditions while working in a digital world. All typefaces are tested on native language users. Being from Norway means being aware of the important features in smaller languages. Therefore attention is spent on details in letters in smaller languages and minority languages too. Process should facilitate usability. Cafe.no was founded in 2000 by Cato Hernes Jensen. Current development is focused on design for edge devices.
