FabLab Residencies

Caution: we are full until January after our moving into the new building !

If you're an artist, designer, engineer or developer and want to develop a new creative project with our digital manufacturing machines, Fablab.iMAL can offer you a residency.

Our maximum 4 weeks residencies take place in our Fablab (and only there). They aim to support original proposals focusing on research and experimentation: prototypes, new materials, etc.

We're offering free access to our machines and trainings, as well as a reimbursement of production costs (eg materials, components, ...) up to 400 € (based on invoices).

Residents have to document their work on the Wikimal and exhibit the result in the dedicated space in the Fablab.

Prerequisites:
Residents bring their own computer and posses basic knowledge in vector based drawing and/or 3D; we only train residents to use the machines and related CAM softwares.

Are you interested? Register now via the form!
