DESCRIPTION

The National Aerospace Laboratory has given Marleen Kaptein unique access to NLR�s state of the art fiber-placement robot capable of printing thin but strong carbon tape in all directions. Marleen combined a human touch with these industrial materials and manufacturing techniques to create poetic objects.

- An exclusive chair made of carbon tape through the miracle of fiber placement that combines industrial technique with the human touch. Only a small number have been made (1.31).

� Fiber placement carbon tape fashions a chair for everyday use with a delicate woven pattern that both catches the eye and is at one with its surroundings (1.32).
