FOC Collection 27Sep2011
Until now 3D printing has been considered expensive and only available to a selected few. Freedom Of Creation plans to change this by selling it’s design collection as well as 3D printers at 9 Bijenkorf department stores in The Netherlands during the “3 Dwaze Dagen”.
Some products of the collection will be 3D printed live on the spot during these 3 crazy Bijenkorf annual sales days. The department stores which are part of this event are Amsterdam, Amstelveen, Arnhem, Den Haag, Eindhoven, Enschede, Maastricht, Utrecht and Rotterdam.
The Bijenkorf website “3 Dwaze Dagen” is the most visited website in the Netherlands during these 3 days, with visitors numbers climbing over 3 million. It is not expected to be more quiet on the floor either since an estimated 1.2 million people will visit these sales days.
Freedom Of Creation collaborates with Bits from Bytes, a 3D printer manufacturer from the UK, in order to bring the technology into people’s homes. It will be the first time 3D printers have been commercialized by a large mainstream department store chain in the world. The special Bijenkorf introduction price for the 3D printers is set at €1247,- which enables anybody to become the designer they always wanted to be.
Please follow this link for the opening times, addresses and additional information about “Drie Dwaze Dagen”.

FOC Collection 23Feb2011
We’ve kicked off 2011 with a prestigious collaboration, star designer Karim Rashid has conceived the amazing “Cross light” exclusively for our design Collection. This is what Karim Rashid – one of the most prolific designers of his generation – says about his creation:
“I thought to make a hyper-collage of my icons as a lit object, in changing scale and mass to create diverse shadows and light filtration, to really make one overriding blobular 3-d cross form, which is my symbol for Globalove,” says Karim Rashid about his astonishing “Cross” table, floor and suspension lamp designed for FOC. The 3D Cross is composed of an infinite number of small icons alluding to Karim’s most famous and iconic forms.
CROSS light: A suggestive cross-shaped light- available in suspended, table and standing versions – made up of the combination of Karim Rashid’s most memorable icons. The cross form is Karim Rashid’s symbol for Globalove.
The Cross light is now for sale from €457 (incl. 19% VAT) and can be purchased from FOC distributors and retailers or in the FOC online store
