Mission
Making as Human Need
We believe that making things makes us human.
We aim to foster the connection of designers with their inner makers
We believe in the power of digital and analogue craftsmanship.
In the importance of making in order to truly appreciate the value of things
In value over profit
Designersβ need for making and crafting over designing only with software
Experimenting with Material practices adds value to outcomes
Hands-on approach
Empowerment & Visibility
We amplify access to infrastructure, machines, tools and resources
We tell the stories of the people in shared workshops
We emphasize the narrative of objects made in shared workshop spaces
We bring visbility to resilient bottom-up practices
We encourage and inspire young creatives to make, try and grow
We help creatives to find affordable working environment and potentially a growing community to develop their skills, passions and projects
Community & Sharing
We believe that making things together brings us closer and acknowledge the
spaces that allow this to happen.
Sharing as a response to the real eastate crisis and the private studio-workshop-atelier not feasible for many independent artists and designers
Play & Fun
We believe making is fun
We believe a sense of Play makes design good
We believe in Design for good
