We are still there, very humble in our beginnings but you have to start somehow and use whatever there is and this is what we want: inspire people to dream big and start small, because that’s the way to go. Even if these are babysteps as it is the case with us. So get inspired!

The antenna. Made out of a metal dog eating bowl, protected from rain with a plastic bag and extended on a fishing rod.
The full station with Sven under the umbrella (sun and rain protection)
The very same spot outside of our kitchen, is also been used as a wood workshop, where the prototypes have been made as seen here.
as well as in our living room when the weather doesn’t allow to work outside.
The dressmaking table Sven built for me on our enclosed front stoop.
The very first bookshelves we have built, consisting of different single shelves put together.
We also had some of them fixed on the wall.
Shelves made to fit into a doorframe for the larger books and magazines.
