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:
