KRADS INTERNSHIP IN ICELAND & DENMARK

We are currently working on a variety of projects; small scale, large scale, in the developing phases, under construction, competitions, etc. If interested please send a mail to Kristján Örn.

DESIGN DAYS IN ICELAND LAST WEEKEND

Last saturday, during the Iceland DesignMarch, we arranged a very interesting gathering in collaboration with Hugmyndahúsið - "The Building for Big Ideas" and Hugmyndaráðuneytið - "The ministry of Ideas". We held a workshop and got Paul Bennet from IDEO to speak and start a discussion on how design could be the next innovative force to get Iceland´s economy back on it´s feet. Around 100 people showed up and participated in an interesting discussion about the future of design and new innovative business opportunities. It left us all with the thougt that design, or creative thinking in general, is at the moment of the utmost importance. It was a great day and we would like to thank Paul, our collaborators and specially all the people that came, for a great afternoon. 

KRADS also gave a lecture last friday where we enjoyed telling about our latest work and thougts.  All in all it has been an exciting weekend, with lots of interesting input from the design community in Iceland, and we are looking forward to participating in it again next year.

BACK FROM HOLIDAYS AND UP TO SPEED

The office in Reykjavik and the office in Århus are both up to full speed again, doing projects. We are now feeling at home in the now office space in Reykjavik downtown, after moving in at the end of december. We are excited to meet and get to know our new interns starting at the office in february to spend the spring term 09 at KRADS.

MODELSHOP IN FULL EFFECT

DK OFFICE ATMOSPHERE

FRESH NEW KRADS SPACE

This weekend we moved the KRADS office in Denmark to our new location i Mejlgade. Due to the fabulous sunny weather, there was a lot of sweat but luckily no tears involved in the move. We got an early start sunday morning and with a lot of help from our friends and family we finished the move at two o' clock. We spent the rest of the day claiming the space.

The new KRADS office is a fantastic space accommodating concentrated workflows, intense workshopping, playfull experiments and a sparkeling game of ping pong. The new address is:
