FOC FOR 3May2010

Freedom Of Creation was approached by NEXT architects to create an exact replica of an existing roof structure for a scale model. NEXT Architects needed to include the existing building structure in their model. But how to create such a complex structure quickly and precisely?

3D printing was the answer, the parts were drawn by NEXT architects and produced in one of our Laser Sintering systems. Each of the beam sections is only 1mm in thickness. Combining the 3D printed parts with the traditional maquette built by Made by mistake, NEXT Architects created a fabulous model.

FOC FOR 2Jan2010

Freedom Of Creation 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. (more…)

FOC FOR 8Aug2008

The Local Government of Amsterdam commissioned FOC to design a trophy for its 10 year edition of the annual “Zuiderkerkprijs” Award. Janne Kyttanen designed the trophy so that it morphs from the “Zuiderkerkprijs” text into the winning building by HVDN Architects. By doing it in this way, the winners get something very special and personal, since their design is incorporated in the award itself.
