Description

The FABLAB at ARUCAD is embedded into the academic curriculum across all our degree programmes all of which have a strong focus on interdisciplinary studio work and making. Other associated areas that work alongside the FABLAB are our Virtual Reality studios and large scale wood and metal workshops and ceramics and glass making facilities. Sculpture is particularly important and we have invested in 6-axis CNC sculpting equipment to create objects in stone, marble, etc from digital files. We have a strong culture of community access and run regular workshops for the public and schools in the region. Following the FABLAB ethos, we would encourage individuals, communities and businesses, wherever you are and whatever you want to create, to come and speak to us, we can help you bring your ideas into reality.
