Type Designer, The Pyte Foundry

His typefaces — suspended betwixt historical research, utilitarian awareness and mannerist caricature — have won the occasional award and are distributed through his own The Pyte Foundry (thepytefoundry.net), all puns intended.

Alongside, he teaches handwriting, lettering, typography, and type design at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and has given lectures and led workshops both nationally and internationally.
