By designing I want to explore new roads and I want to be surprised where these roads take me. Experimentation with materials and techniques common and not so common is paramount. To work with interesting craftspeople, other designers and innovative companies right from the start is spurring my inspiration.
With the fundament of a rich craft and industrial heritage in mind I am embracing the possibilities of high tech. For my way of working I coined the term ‘cybercraft’.
Conceptual design for which the Netherlands are famed at the moment is not the holy grail for me, rather is the concept an integral part of a layered product where technology and the use of material are of equal importance.
When I am busy with an assignment or free work, I want to dive into the technique and I want to be able to make it myself or at least understand every single step of the creation…that is very important for me: to identify with “head and hand” with the things I create.
