Open Werkplaats - Fiction Factory

Join us Thursday, Feb. 29, at Fiction Factory for the next Open Workshop! In this versatile building studio, they make everything from furniture and sets to store interiors and entire Wrap Houses. They are at the forefront of sustainable craftsmanship and are working to increase circularity in the interior design industry by cleverly reusing materials. They also contribute to research on new sustainable techniques with partners and educational institutions, and even lunch is provided sustainably.

You are welcome from 18:00 to 20:30 for a look at Fiction Factory's sustainable workshop and working methods. Be sure to also bring your knowledge and questions as we discuss sustainability in manufacturing companies and lessons learned from practice.

Pizza and a drink will be provided.

Together with Pakhuis de Zwijger and the Hout- en Meubileringscollege, Waag is exploring in the project Centrinno what makers mean and can mean for the city. How do we ensure that makers in Amsterdam-North can keep their maker spaces while more and more housing is being built? How can maker spaces blend in with their neighbourhoods, and can makers and residents mean something to each other?
