That's to die for!


We know, we might be a bit ahead of ourselves, but if everything continues this way we’ll soon be hiring new staff. And since we’re an ambitious bunch we’re already pondering on how to attract and maintain the best and brightest people.

In the press


Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten paid us a visit the other day. We had a chat about all kinds of things. Ideas, hopes, challenges. Then, Monday, August 28, we appeared on page 11 in the business and economy section. Click here to read the online version of the story ...

And very hush-hush ...


We’ve been assigned by a very interesting, powerful and meaningful association. We’re talking an absolute elite client (and from a sector we'd like to do business in). It all happened so fast, first deadline is round the corner. It’s exciting, new – and very hush-hush. More to come ...

Here’s Johnny!


Everyone, meet Johnny, our very own financial advisor. He started his first company at the age of 17. Today he owns accounting and business developing consultancy Censor Revision with offices in Denmark, Greenland and Spain. When he talks, we listen. When he says no, we say no. When he drinks milk, we drink... coffee (notice the glas of milk - what’s up with that, Johnny?!)

It’s nice to see how business culture and idea-based online “street” culture come together these days: Danish business newspaper Erhvervsbladet just featured us both online and off-line in a story about how we kick started Hatch & Bloom via youtube.com (scroll down on this page to see the actual video). They just made one big mistake! They forgot to mention Mette who was romping around at the Skanderborg Festival drinking champagne and enjoying the sunshine. Click here to read the story.

Now awaits our work: Full communication and design program.

Meet our business roommates


We are lucky to share the office with these two talented product designers, Rasmus Thygesen and Jakob Nørregaard – the owners of successful industrial design firm Thygesen og Nørregaard. Great to have product-shaping wizards within reach – it makes our cross-competence business setup even stronger.

Our first moment of zen


Sometimes everything turns out the way you planned: We moved into the office, didn’t break anything, family and friends popped by (we didn’t even invite them). Then the sun came out and we got our first client – even a client from the foods sector (a sector we'd like to do business in)! All in one day. Then our server broke down, though. But we had enough champagne to forget that for a while.
