The studio in detail

Five people. One office on Kløvervænget. Founded 2020. We design and engineer marketing sites, web applications, e-commerce platforms, and AI features for businesses in Denmark and the rest of Europe.

Small on purpose

Five is the studio.
It will stay that way.

We started in 2020 with three people, a sub-let desk in central Odense, and the conviction that the agency model had two specific places where it was broken: the pricing structure (open-ended retainers that disconnected effort from outcome) and the engagement length (the twelve-week project that was almost never twelve weeks of actual work). Five years later we are five people, our own small office on Kløvervænget, and a practice rebuilt entirely around two-week sprints with a fixed fee paid before the work begins.

We are small on purpose. We believe the studio at this size is the thing it should be: every senior on every project, every brief read by every person who will work on it, every difficult call made in a room where everyone has the context. There is a version of this studio at fifteen people that delivers more revenue and worse work. We are not interested in it.

We work in English with clients across Europe and in Danish with clients in Denmark. We invoice in euros and add 25% Danish moms (VAT) for Danish clients; reverse-charge applies to the rest of the EU; clients outside the EU are not charged VAT. Payment is by Stripe for sprints purchased through this site, and by SEPA bank transfer or card on invoice for larger custom engagements.

We will say no to a project that does not fit. We will say no to a tool we do not believe in. We will say no to a budget that does not match the brief. None of that is rudeness. It is honesty about what the work needs to be good. The fastest way to find out whether we are a fit is to file a brief — we reply within two working days, in writing, with one of three answers.

The five

Personnel records.
By order of seniority.
Andreas Holst
QCV—STAFF—01

Andreas Holst

Founder & Principal Engineer

Andreas founded the studio in 2020 after eight years working on platform engineering at a Copenhagen e-commerce business. He divides his time between writing TypeScript, breaking the team's tie at the lunch table on whether espresso should be ordered as single or double, and keeping the books.

Sigrid Bjerregaard
QCV—STAFF—02

Sigrid Bjerregaard

Design Director

Sigrid leads the design practice. She trained as a graphic designer in Aarhus, worked in editorial design in Berlin, and joined the studio at the start of 2022. She is unusually patient about kerning and unusually impatient about meetings that could have been a written note.

Mikkel Vestergaard
QCV—STAFF—03

Mikkel Vestergaard

Senior Frontend Engineer

Mikkel writes most of the front-end code that ships from the studio. He spent three years on a design-systems team at a Danish bank before joining us, which means he has unusually strong opinions about tokens and even stronger opinions about CSS specificity.

Frederikke Lund
QCV—STAFF—04

Frederikke Lund

Backend & Infrastructure

Frederikke runs the back-end and infrastructure work. She joined from a Berlin SaaS startup in 2023 and brings the kind of operational rigour we did not have before her. The on-call runbooks we now ship to clients are entirely her doing.

Theo Krarup
QCV—STAFF—05

Theo Krarup

Producer

Theo produces the work. Briefs, schedules, change orders, the long quiet conversations with clients about scope. Before the studio he produced documentary radio for two Danish national broadcasters, which has turned out to be more transferable than anyone expected.
