Movin' on up - new offices x2
23/03/09
Crafted Media's offices just outside Ipswich were getting pretty crowded. The meeting room became desk space for the development team and the designers were complaining about "invasions of their personal space". Clearly the time had come to up sticks and provide a little more space for our growing team.
Our new home in Ipswich is now (perhaps befittingly) The Old Unicorn - once a brewery & pub; now double the previous space replete with new furniture, a staff break out room (with typical table football & wii - see designer Chris's photos on Flickr), meeting room and even a small server room. Some minor finishing is still required - signage is going up as we speak - but otherwise we are all pretty happy all round.
Not satisfied with the new Ipswich office, we've also added some much-needed office space in London; part of a fantastic new building called The Wenlock near Angel, Islington. We're not quite in yet - just waiting telephony to be installed.
So far, the comments on our new spaces have been positive. Hopefully our new homes will be the source of much future creativity and development for Crafted Media!
