Unrepeatable Carpets


The project ‘Unrepeatable Carpets’ is
a collaboration between visual artist
Marcel Kronenburg and software
engineer Marten Teitsma. The main
objective of this creative undertaking
is to make better use of the current
production capacity of carpet manu-
facturing. By means of custom-made
written software we intend to have the
computer-controlled carpet printing
machine generate and print images at
random. To execute this project we will
cooperate with manufacturer Zimmer
Maschinenbau in Austria.



Wall-through-wall Carpets


A wall-through-wall-carpet is the result of design strategy for buildings in which the floor plan and the perception of space are the basic principles. With the use of computer-controlled carpet printing machines it is possible to create special visual and spheric effects for the building in combination with a carefully executed carpeting plan.
