I first came across his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pelidesign.com\/plastic3.php\">Plastic Nature<\/a> furtniture in a catalogue and immediately loved it. His chairs, stool and table combine resin with wood to create a natural with<a class=\"serendipity_image_link\" href=\"uploads\/pelitable.JPG\"><!-- s9ymdb:221 --><\/a> synthetic &#8216;cyborg&#8217; that is just absolutely amazing.

The smoothness of the resin combined with the wood give the desings a unique feel. I also love the juxtaposition of a natural material with a man made one.<\/p>\n<p>Peli initially came up with this design for his graduation project for the Design Academy in Eindhoven.<a class=\"serendipity_image_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/scanning31.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"73\" width=\"110\" style=\"border: 0px none ; float: right; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/scanning31-150x150.jpg\"><\/a> It is no surprise then that he would now be interested in 3d Printing and rapid prototyping. For our Virtual Making Exhibit for Dutch Design Week this year he became inspired by, &#8220;A machine&#8217;s perception.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With 3d scanning equipment and 3d printing he showed that machines do indeed percieve and are less perfect than we imagine them to be. He experimented with different resolutions and printed out the results. From<a class=\"serendipity_image_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/uploads\/scanning3.JPG\"><!-- s9ymdb:224 --><\/a> very fine reproductions to low resolution models you can see how machines percieve and be entertained by interesting shapes that will seem cartoon-y at times as well as all to familiar to 3d mod<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/scanning1.jpg\" class=\"serendipity_image_link\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"73\" width=\"110\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/scanning1-150x150.jpg\" style=\"border: 0px none ; float: right; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;\"><\/a>elers out there.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Look at the difference in the above ashtrays from realistic to angular.
