Since graduating from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2003 Christien Meindertsma has developed a unique design approach. In her work, she thoroughly explores the life of objects and raw materials.
In 2012 Christien approached Forbo Flooring for her Flax project. With a by her purchased flax harvest as a starting point, she asked Forbo to support her research into the possibility of making a locally produced linoleum with locally grown natural raw materials. The samples she made were presented during the Dutch Design Week 2012. A beautiful series that revealed and emphasized the naturalness of Marmoleum.
