When my father celebrated his 40th year at Ouweland Expeditie BV I modeled their location from photo references and turned it into my first attempt at a 3D graph. The model features 20 trucks and 23 employees, meant to convey the scale of their operation. As a salute to his jubilee the employees are arranged to form the shape of “40”. It was printed on my own Blueprinter M2....

This project aims to capture a memory (in this case of our yearly holidays) in 3D printed steel coins. If we keep this up we can piggy bank our most precious memories, creating a type of empirical currency. The forth coin is a playful variation on the principle. It features my face on one side, and my girlfriend’s on the other – so we can let faith decide who has to do the dishes....

I shaped this 3D printed aluminum bell cover like a parrot, to remind me about my grandfather (and his favorite bird) every time I get on the bike that I inherited from him....

This contest challenged us with the question: How can you combine the soft sector of care with the hard material steel in a meaningful way.? We chose a very specific target group: people in a wheelchair, and decided not to focus on their limitation – but rather on the advantage their limitation, and how to share that advantage. We created a foldable chair which can be employed by the wheelchair users themselves to invite people to sit with them when the occasion calls for it. The movement performed to fold out the chair is inviting in itself, and the variable angle in which it can be applied combined with its close proximity to the permanent seat create a personal and informal interaction platform. Inviting someone to the same level can completely change the dynamics of a conversation, making our wheelchair-chair a welcome addition to the care sector of...

FINAL EMBRACE A personal project that applies 3D printing technology to bring about a transformation of a standard urn into a unique and personal object. For this design the hands were scanned in from each member of the family left behind; her husband, sons, daughters in law and grand child. Together they shape a ‘final...

An collaborative exploration with interior architect Karin Valckx about the dinner table of the future. Our Floatable hovers above the table center axe, floating towards anyone who takes a seat. When people touch the Floatable it will light up brighter, yet when its ignored it will look for interaction elsewhere. Its character decides whether it floats off to new people joining the table or whether its loyal to its original company – its appearance can be personalized through 3D printing technology....

This project explored the question whether the old craft of paper-making can be enhanced through the contemporary technology of 3D printing. Replacing the labor-intensive soldering of line drawings that produce watermarks by printed lines (created straight from digital images) reduces production time by more...
