FABLAB

Fablab is a co-working open experimentation space at DOT School of Design in Chennai. Fablab is established exclusively for technological, educational, cultural and scientific purposes.

The lab provides space and technology to any maker who is a designer or student for their live projects. In addition, the maker can also recruit DOT students in their projects or can take mentorship from DOT faculties, thereby making Fablab a win-win venture for both, maker as well as DOT.
