The team that makes the magic happen.
Always a corner somewhere to do a little thinking.
We all need our coffee.
Collaboration amongst our team is what we are all about, but it's easy to be creative when you get to look out the window and see our amazing view of Cape Town.
Coffee time is something we all need, and we do have GREAT coffee.
Lego is a thing in our office. We build something new once a month.
A birds eye view. We have an open plan relaxed atmosphere. Work/Fun/Invent/innovate it's what we are all about.
When we do take a break, we like to get our mind off things. Backgammon anyone?
