Hardal Studio is an independent design practice with a focus on type and visual identity. Rooted in minimalist and functionalist traditions, the studio creates work that is both precise and purposeful.

Its portfolio spans custom typefaces, brand identities, editorial layouts, and packaging — all designed with a belief that good design communicates clearly, but also resonates emotionally. Every project draws from a deep respect for the clarity of modernist design, reinterpreted for the rhythm and complexity of the digital age.

At the heart of the studio’s approach is a simple idea: meaningful design doesn’t need to be loud — it just needs to be clear.
