Walk! I
Walk! 1

Client: Adidas Innovation Team
Walk! is a shirt that was developed for women between 20 – 30 years old who want an active lifestyle. In the morning a pedometer module is attached to the shirt, which registers the amount of steps that are taken during the day. The pattern on the shirt consists out of 6 spheres. Pieces of the spheres are printed in thermo chromatic ink, which is ink that can change color. When a piece of thermo chromatic ink changes, a line is created between two spheres. The more steps are taken, the more spheres are connected. The wearer can therefore get an indication of the amount of steps taken by looking at her shirt.
I received an excellence verdict for this project and both Walk! projects were displayed at the ID’09 exhibition during the Dutch Design week 2009 in Eindhoven. Furthermore the project has been featured on several blogs (e.g. Talk2myshirt), articles (e.g. Boletin de opportunidades innovadores para el Textil) and in the book “Metamorphosis “ by Elisabetta Cianfanelli together with professors of the University of Florence of the deparment of Industrial design.

Project Walk! II
2009
Client: Adidas Innovation Team
After a succesful first iteration of the project Walk! I continued with the project. In this version an older target group was chosen. A user evaluation of the first concept of Walk! with women of 30-45 years revealed the following essential values: Safety, Privacy, Pleasure, Enjoying life and Healthy. A second concept iteration of the pedometer shirt concept was conducted. The new concept uses lighting to provide the feedback. More steps equals more lit flowers. Furthermore the wearer can decide for herself if she wants to show her progress to the rest of the world or keep it private, by changing the way she wears the garment.

Client: Philips/ CitizenM hotels
I participated with a team in the Philips creative Challenge 2009. The concept our team designed was called DoorM. The concept lowers the threshold for CitizenM hotel guests to visit the shared living rooms, by triggering their curiosity through interactive spy holes; offering an abstract overview of these living rooms and activity, via blurred video and dampened sound. The lights around the spyholes will slowly light up to attract the attention of the guest. Furthermore, DoorM showcases suitable living rooms based on the guests` preferences.

Hema Design competition
I competed in the Hema Design competition 2009 which is a competition organised for Design students by the big Dutch company Hema. The assignment for 2009 was to make a a common product or material special again and give it a second life. I transformed the cup of a small wax candle, that is normally thrown away, into a little clock.
Photoshop
Since high school I have liked working with Adobe Photoshop and it is a program that I use for my work, but also in my spare time. Below are some of the things I made during the past years ranging from posters to product renderings.
Paintings
In my spare time I like to draw and paint. I made these paintings with stencils and spray paint.
