Cooperation project:
The product design students in MA-Modul 1 work on an external design project with Formlabs. In an intense 2 days workshop a deep dive is taken into the world of Formlabs at their headquarters in Berlin.
Formlabs offers in depth info on their specific technology and materials,  learn about common mistakes with 3d printing (LFS, SLS, SLA) and digital fabrication and inform about their aims and dreams. Within the project is looked at a number of questions that Formlabs would like to get a response to. One challenge can be picked based on your own preferences and background, but all circle around the theme of CUSTOMISATION.
