What is Swedish Fika?
Swedish Fika is our brainchild, we figured that everything we usually discuss over our daily cup of coffee can be translated into a website. We usually discuss XHTML, CSS, Grid Systems, Adobe Products, Server-side programming, OOP, Design, Typography, Apple Products etc.
Everything that matters to a web designer/developer!
Swedish Fika is designed and maintained by the co-founders Alexander Radsby & Simon Kjellberg.
