ABOUT US

Tell me more!

Who is this for?

The Think Make experience is intended for anyone who seeks to create a product fully designed and made by you. The product can be a prototype for starting a business, a gift for someone, or a custom statement piece for your home.

Do I need to have design experience to join a session?

Nope! The experience is all about learning and we will guide you through the entire process. If you've ever been curious about what it takes to become a product designer, this is a great place to start!

What software is required?

No software is needed for you to complete your design. All you'll need is pen, paper and a tape measure/ruler.

What skills will I learn?

You'll learn the basics of the design process and rapid prototyping which include: concept ideation, drafting, design iteration, 2D fabricating and sourcing parts.

Are there limitations to what I can make?

Think Make Studio is a 2D fabrication workshop. Meaning parts are cutout or engraved on a two-dimensional plane. Then the parts are assembled to create a three dimensional form. You can lean more about 2D fabrication from our Fabrication Guide.

What can I expect from a live sessions?

Design Sessions are what make the Think Make experience so great. This is your opportunity to connect with others to share your inspiration, work in progress and ask questions. Great designs don't come from silos. The connections you'll make and feedback you'll receive will prove invaluable. View sessions calendar.

What if I can't attend the live sessions?

Sessions can be completed asynchronously or self-guided. However we do encourage attending the live sessions as you will gain more from the experience. We may request one to two live meetings with our staff to ensure we understand your design and that it is ready for production. This meeting can be scheduled for a time that suites you.
