Benthem Crouwel contacted FOC’s Imagineering department, which executes all the technical and cutting edge projects within FOC, to create their scale model.
The cutting edge fact for this project was mainly in the speed in which it was modeled, produced, assembled and delivered to the client, all within 8 days. READ ON

Freedom Of Creation’s Imagineering department collaborated with Tjep to create a stunning scale model of the Tjep Oogst concept. Tjep is a design agency based in Amsterdam, in October 2008, Tjep. initiated an investigation into new developments in the agricultural sector. What they came across were radical ideas with regards to self-sufficiency, capable of getting us quite a bit closer to the concept of a sustainable society.
They approached Freedom Of Creation to create the scale model of the Oogst 01 concept explaining and visualizing the ideas in great detail.
About Oogst:
As a creative agency focusing on 3D design and visual communication, their approach was not technically oriented, but rather they chose to put the accent on cultural aspects and social implications through design. The central question that Tjep set themselves is: how can we, as designers, contribute to the fundamental developments that are taking place in Dutch agricultural research? Is self-sufficiency the path towards a more ecological sustainable society? And if so, on what scale is it workable? Can we combine the advantages of a globalized world with aspirations towards physical independence? These are some of the questions Oogst is trying contextualize. READ ON

FOC Imagineering collaborated with Deltasync the past weeks to design a one-off interactive model to display Deltasync’s floating community developments.
The FOC imagineering team, directed by Julian Sing, created an interactive model to bring the Deltasync vision into reality. A 3D printed building was mounted over an 81cm High Definition LCD display, which looped a motion graphics piece showcasing moving water, text, visuals, entertaining scenery and audio effects. Not only does the screen attract attention, it also allows the client to display more content than a static model ever could, with the added advantage that the content can be dynamic or even updated over time.
The movie shows how FOC Imagineering team managed to combine the rippling animated water, graphics such as flying birds and floating clouds into one continuous animation, which tells the viewer what Deltasync is developing.
To enrich the experience further we added in the sounds of a busy city, people chatting, mobile phones ringing, cars honking and loud boat horns. READ ON

Freedom Of Creation has been exploring the field of 3D printing for nearly a decade. We have been pioneering the future of rapid manufacturing design goods and bringing customization to the masses. One of the promising technologies that will bring lots of new opportunities to 3D printing, is printing in paper.
MCOR has been exploring this technology for several years and with the presentation of the matrix 300 printer it’s becoming reality. Freedom Of Creation is one of the first to print a FreshFiber iPhone cover in colored layers of paper. For the first time the layering effect of 3D printing is actually adding value to the finish and look and feel of a product.
