Danish foundry founded in 1997 by ex-graduates from the Denmark Design School and the Royal Art Academy. They designed a lot for corporations, such as for Framfab (Point Sans and Point Serif), the Danish Film Institute (Millton, 1998), the Källemo catalogue (Källemo) and the Danish State Archive, and are the main competitor of Kontrapunkt. After the ATypI meeting in Denmark in 2001, I learned that this is one of Denmark's main foundries. Based in Copenhagen, it sells fonts by its founders: - Jonas Hecksher: Cendia (1997), DenmarkSerif (1998), Mega (1999), Olic (1999), Point Sans (1999), Point Serif (1999), Underton (1998), Movie (2001, a very black sans), iD:00 (2001, a sans), Fletch (1998, a sans), DeLuca (Bodoni-like, 2001), NinetySix K (2001, a serif).
