Sommerseth Design

What Sommerseth Design does

Sommerseth Design AS is a privately held Norwegian full-stack design agency founded in 2007 and based in Drøbak, Norway. The company provides an integrated portfolio of services spanning graphic design and visual identity, illustration and animation, UI/UX design and prototyping, and no-code/low-code web development on Webflow and Framer platforms. It holds Webflow Certified Partner and Framer Expert credentials, and in 2025 added AI chatbot development as a distinct service line through an internal capability supplemented by a core technology partnership with FrostByte Ai for enterprise-scale deployments.

The business operates on a project-based professional services model with no public pricing, quotes provided upon inquiry based on scope. Revenue is generated through fixed-price project engagements rather than recurring contracts, with engagements typically combining multiple service lines into single deliverables. Core team is three members (design lead, graphic designer, illustrator), augmented by a partner network for larger projects. Distribution is direct: clients contact the agency via email or phone, supplemented by a channel partnership with U.S.-based creative agency Supper Co for North American enterprise commissions. Marketing relies on portfolio website, social media, and earned credibility through 23 CSS Design Awards nominations and features in industry publications.

The customer base spans mid-to-large B2B enterprises across construction, maritime, telecommunications, architecture, and technology verticals, with notable clients including Telenor, Bygg1, Submara, D3 LED, Scantrol, and Magseis Fairfield, plus long-term relationships with Norwegian Swimming Federation (since 2007) and Nittedal Municipality. Operating geographies are Norway (primary) and the United States (via Supper Co channel). The agency completed a strategic platform pivot from WordPress to Webflow between 2020 and 2023, and has continued to extend capabilities into Framer and AI chatbot services as growth vectors.
