Trondheim Type Club says HelloTypo™

Old school

Found this old picture from back in the good old days at the Oslo National College of the Arts. This is the very nice and cozy “kitchen” in the hallway outside the classrooms in the visual communication department. Nicely decorated with lovely large letters.

Who we are

TTC (Trondheim Type Club) started out in 2008 by Aasmund Hegglid and Trond Aslak Øvrum. The idea was made in 2007 as something we missed in our town. A breeding place for type-fanatics.

We are now a group of people with relations to the design/advertising industry in Trondheim, Norway.

We all have passion and love for typography, and want to share our ideas, inspirations and knowledge with everyone. Kern or die!
