Don’t have that many intresting images to share this weekend. Me and Krista have been busting our asses with the project we are currently working, with average working hours between 9am-11pm!

But me, Kris and Greg took the local bus to IKEA in Redhook today and I shot some pics!

Your-Majesty is not only a design agency, we also make delicious wines!

Ok, lets take the bus to IKEA this time.

People of Redhook seem to love their dogs.

Aile 2 Bin 32 please. Unfortunately the coathanger and shoerack we were looking for were out of stock :(

“Julstök.” And i bought a x-mas bock!

Our little kitchen is now prepped for X-mas and filled with X-mas spirit… even though Greg is a jew.


One month in New York!

Wow, it has already been a month since I came to the US of A and the time seems to just fly by! In one month I have accomplished to:

  • Spent 1 month on my awesome intership at Your-Majesty
  • Got myself and my three comr ades an awesome flat in central Williamsburg.
  • Found myself a brunchplace just around the corner, Simple Café at Bedford Avenue.
  • Got offered sexual favors from a homeless woman for 20 dollars.

Aw screw it, this was a lousy way to explain all the stuff I´ve been through so far :P

The internship as earlier mentioned is doing great. Everyone at Your-Majesty are so friendly and welcoming and both me and Kristofer got included in a real, big, project from day one! No doing banners for two months before the real stuff! So our first project is launchin early next year!

I am currently working as a flash developer and so far I must say I feel pretty comfortable in that role, I’m learning a ton of stuff each day and it’s really intresting to be a part of a big project. I hope to get the chance to try out my producing skills soon as well!

Your-Majesty X-mas party

As mentioned we get along really good with the other people at the agency. The company holiday party was a couple of days ago and we went to one of the oldest resturants in New York, WEARING 17CENTURE WIGS! Haha, but it was so much fun and was a night to remember! Our two creative directors Jens and James together with our AD Christian had a kind of intresting drinking song that I couldn’t keep away from doing a little movie of ;)

When I’m not working I try to see stuff. But I haven’t even seen the statue of liberty yet :P There is so much to explore in New York and I’m currently obsessed of secondhand shopping in Brooklyn! Everything is so cheap and awesome!

Shirt and Black leather shoes on Vice Versa second hand store in Williamsburg: $21 !! Bowtie, American Apparel: $20 :P

Blue pinstriped shirt: $3 at Thrift Store Seconhand, Williamsburg. Brown leather bag (perfect for my macbook): $15 at Vice Versa! “Köprus”

Speaking of clothes I’m happy to announce that mine, Samuels, Haralds and Marcs final project, Tjallamalla online shop, has been brought to life is now live! We have worked so hard on it and it feels just great to finally have it live. My role in the project has been as the project manager and head developer, alot of hard work, but it was definitely worth it.

As a PM/Producer I have learned a lot about the client journey, working with large scale real projects and working as a team.

As a developer I´ve experienced my first real big project, working with other developers and a whole new language, called Liqiud.

I learned a ton of other stuff, like the importance of making products look good, and alot about how the e-commerce business works as well.

So… if anyone want help with hooking up a great looking online store, I’m your man!
