The Hague puzzle
Plexiglass & birchwood

Characteristic buildings in The Hague were the inspiration for this The Hague puzzle.

CRE8 - a social venture

CRE8 social venture wants to be of significance for everyone in the local environment: for clients and customers and especially for the less visible groups like Amsterdam youngsters that are in socially disadvantaged positions. At CRE8 social venture, they learn to discover their interests and get the chance to develop them under guidance. CRE8 educates and trains these young people until they can operate 3D printers and laser cutters. In addition, they get the chance to develop their creativity and talents.

The vision of CRE8 on new crafts

The use of digital production techniques like 3D-printing and laser cutting spreads wider and wider. These developments lead to new professions, at the interface of the virtual and physical reality: the new crafts of the 21st century. The machine converts digital craftsmanship into tangible results, in small series or as unique items. The techniques take little space, result in little or no waste and can, therefore, be used in the middle of the city: Urban Fabrication!
