About Us : Website Creative and Technology Studio

Passionate About The Web, Since 1996

Look North is a website design and technology studio located in Montclair, New Jersey. What started as a curiousity of all things digital grew into a full-fledged obsession with modern communication tools and techniques. Our team has years of experience learned from industry leaders in information architecture, graphic and user-interface design and modern website development, not to mention account and project management. We encourage and actively participates in professional, community and personal organizations and initiatives including volunteer programs and non-profit work.

How'd Ya Get That Name?

For centuries, navigators have used North as a reference. Once North is determined, the rest of the compass is easily derived, and a clear path to the goal is in sight. Look North aims to lead our Clients on a clear path towards their communication goals through smart, effective uses of design and technology. Our logo mark uses a star, representing the North Star. And our logo typeface is a modified version of Georgia, one of the original HTML "friendly" typefaces available on both Mac and PC platforms.
