About us
How everything started:
Actually, we just wanted to relax, when we – Markus Goeddertz, Philipp Harnischmacher, Daniel Pokolski and Dominik Reinartz – had a sauna evening in April 2007.
Suddenly, the sauna heater caught our attention, to be more precise: the inadequate logo of the manufacturer. We all agreed that the logo was highly unprofessional, hardly individual and not at all inventive. The sauna heat and a nerve-wracking question made us sweat: Where does a business actually get a professional design from? How do they obtain a logo that is individually designed for their company and product? And moreover, how do companies get straightforward in touch with creative designers? This special evening in the sauna was the birth of Criggle, the clever job exchange for designers and creative people which is intended to be a network at the same time and to become the very platform for freelancers in Europe soon.
