Design & Engineering

Motivation

Designing and creating is a part of my life since childhood. I like to work out technical solutions to various problems, to try out and evolve my ideas. From paper and pencil to 3D CAD software, using the materials and workshop possibilities I have available.
After my degree in mechanical engineering I spent a good part of my professional life as a development engineer, project manager and team manager. Working in research and in the 3D printing industry, I experienced highly innovative project work first hand.
With CAD software and 3D printing at hand, I could realize a lot of projects for myself, many of them involving bikes and/or ergonomy.
Now I moved out of the corporate world and I focus on my healing work, but the ties to design and engineering remain.

Find a few examples of my projects below.
