Human powered

I work conceptually and autonomous with a technical influence. My products are often combinations of services and everyday objects.

Even though my starting point ate techniques and mechanisms, I work autonomously. In my designs, form and function changes continuously, nothing is excluded as a source of inspiration.


With the motto reversed engineering for mass production, I want to make the process of the product more transparent, making the product more accessible to everyone. Through the combination of simple mechanisms and functional objects, I wanna create new patterns of use and stimulate the DIY mentality.

Transparent design means to me independence of agencies and a self-sufficient handling of techniques, raw materials and products around us. As for example injection jewelry and power pack, my products are often human-powered and adapted to our current environment.

passion for low-tech

Low-Tech is een ontwerp filosofie die de antithese tot high-tech vormt. Dit betekent dat de bewuste zonder dure gecompliceerde technologie en het gebruik van eenvoudige werkzame bestanddelen. De term low-tech vormt het contrast met high-tech en verwijst naar technologie die de volgende normen ontwikkelen. Eenvoudige functie, productie, bediening, onderhoud en robuustheid.

Een van de belangrijkste toepassingsgebieden voor low-tech producten zijn ontwikkelingslanden. Low-tech-producten worden ontwikkeld onder het aspect van duurzaamheid en afvalreductie. Door hoge robuustheid hebben vanuit hun fabricage een langere levensduur dan vergelijkbare high-tech producten. Door gemakkelijke onderhoudbaarheid en repareerbaarheid wordt de levensduur vaak aanzienlijk verlengt. De producten moeten niet worden vervangen. 
Low-tech producten zijn na gebruik gemakkelijk te demonteren en te recycling voor een geschikte hergebruik. Ze komen vaak uit zonder elektriciteit. Voor de bediening is meestal eenvoudige menselijke kracht voldoende, er zijn geen aandrijvende batterijen nodig.

tool reverse engineering

Reverse engineering, also called back engineering, is the processes of extracting knowledge or design information from anything man-made and re-producing it or re-producing anything based on the extracted information. The process often involves disassembling something (a mechanical device, electronic component, computer program, or biological, chemical, or organic matter) and analyzing its components and workings in detail.


Current project

Re-developing the mechanismen for mass-production

I want to expand these types of mechanisms and apply these to machines, systems or products that provide a service for home or can be set up in the public spaces.

Through open source design and human powered systems, I want to animate the user to make the product themselves and maintain it independently, to ensure each individual can promote change. I don't want to start a collectieve group, but I wanna give humans a piece of independence back. The product is a service or a depot of raw materials, in order to prevent the concept of waste.


By questioning function and use of surrounding products and rejecting traditionalists systems and processes, I want to make the world of products more understandable and independent. I work for technical innovation and strive for a more conscious handling of products around us.

Mimicking Machines

Assignment 1

I Draw. You Draw. It Draws I had chosen a drill as my favorite tool for the assignment. First I looked up pictures and line drawings of drills online, than I choose the one which was the most simple and clear. I traced it in Adobe Illustrator and printed it on the scales. To ensure the corner points are at a clear point in the scale, I modified the drawing to match the points better. For example: I changed the form to mostly full numbers, like draw a line from A4 to B8, in place of draw a line from point A3,4 to B7,85. I scanned it and traced it again in Adobe Illustrator.

I divided the drill in different colored parts to make the number blocks, instead of an unlimited list without breaks. I thought maybe people get it, that each number block is a different closed part of the drawing.

Rather than using x & y scales with just numbers, I decided to use letters across the top, and numbers down the side. Because it`s less confusing to hear a letter with a number, instead of just numbers. This way there won`t be a mix up where to start and you can`t start at the wrong scale/axe.


The people in class didn`t get it right 100%, but it was clear to see, what it`s supposed to be. My first testperson responded per mail and had the same mistake in the drawing as the people in class. I think, it`s my fault then. ;)

Assignment 2

The Extruded Milled and Sliced Alphabet

I got the letter L and wanted to 3D print it. Because I used the cnc mill quite often, I knew the structure of some sketch-up drawings for 3D print would not match the fabrication with the cnc mill. My letter had holes through all sides of the object.
