Hi, I’m Dan Cederholm. SimpleBits® is my tiny design studio, type foundry, and goods shop. We make handmade letters and numbers (and goods with those letters and numbers on them) in Salem, Massachusetts.

SimpleBits has been my design studio and hypertext home for over 20 years. At times, I’m available for select logo design projects. Previously, I co-founded Dribbble. I also infrequently write here on the blog, take photos, share short thoughts on design and the universe, and occassionally record a podcast. I’m a U.S. Coast Guard-licensed Captain and quite possibly the world’s worst fisherman.

Twenty Bits I Learned

I started writing little books each year about things I’ve learned on a specific topic. Cloth-bound with mid-century aesthetics and arguably-artistic doodles.

Join our Simple Type Club to get all our typefaces and other perks.

I occasionally host a podcast called, The SimpleBits Show, where I interview creative people smarter than me.
