Dejlig Line

Home is the structure and love is the binding agent. And we can't leave the tech talk for a moment. The Dejlig line is a series of innovative, fun and surprisingly useful products developed from concept to actual manufacturing, to make your home an even more fun place.

Barnabas Bot

Barnabas-Bot is an open-source Introduction to Robotics product and curriculum that exposes elementary and middle school kids to the inner workings of robotics. Our community driven content guides youth through a self-discovery process as they design, fabricate, wire and program a unique robot of their own.

I LOVE LAMP

Flexible light-emitting materials can transform what we think of as a light source for the home or office. Let's experiment with different surface shapes and LEDs to see what kind of lamps we can build.

Autofold

A desktop box folding robot for micro factories. It allows makers and small businesses to compete with large scale manufacturing. In the global market place packaging and shipping is required. Our goal is to help make local manufacturing economically feasible, preventing repetitive motion injuries and letting you focus what is going in the box.

Control Or Sense

Extending the VR experience capability for mobile devices. We are doing this by creating the foundation and educational resources to enable makers and companies to quickly develop and test the components for a new controller without the headache of having to write tedious amounts of code.

ELPH Skin

A flexible electrophoretic (e-ink) display worn on the skin, similar to a temporary tattoo. This project includes research and development of a thin and flexible multilayered PCB that can be produced with commercially available equipment.

DTTO Project

The Dtto Robot is a modular transformable robot designed to be versatile, flexible and self-reconfigurable. The idea of modular robots is that they can adopt any shape they want, by changing the position and the connection of their modules. 

TerraPreta

Develop a prototype of Pyrolysis Chemical Reactor to generate the decomposition of Organic Waste through the application of heat into a Charcoal commonly named Biochar, what is a stable solid, rich in carbon, used to increase the soil fertility to increase the yield in agricultural production, and also allowing us to mitigate global warming by sequestering carbon and producing energy that can be used in the same process to reduce the energy requirements.

College of the Creatives

Bespoke mystery puzzle boxes inviting an unsolicited group of nerdy & socially conscientious creatives to join a secret society called the College of the Creatives. After the box is opened, its contents reveal that it was sent to them on behalf of the last member of the LA Science Fiction chapter of the College.

There is a little on-street parking nearby, but your best bet is to park in one of the parking structures that serves the Metro Station or Old Town Pasadena.

View a Google map showing the Design Lab location and parking.

All locations are open 24/7, and the rates are:
First 90 minutes free, $2/hour, $6 daily max, $5 flat rate after 10pm

Public Transport

Using the Metro Goldline trains is quick and easy. It takes about 20 mins from Union Station in downtown LA to Del Mar Station, which is less than 2 minutes walk from our front door. Trains run about every 10 mins during the day, and 20 mins at night from 11pm-2am.

There are also buses that serve Old Town Pasadena. The nearest intersection is FAIR OAKS/DEL MAR BLVD, PASADENA, CA 91105. You can find timetables or use the Metro Trip Planner at Metro.net

Tools are being installed and the furniture is starting to arrive.

Come to a pre-launch meetup at the Design Lab Thursday 21 Jan.

We are getting close!

These are the latest images from the Supplyframe Design Lab. There has been a long road to this point, but the major construction in almost completed. We have outfitted the space with a massive new power budget to run big equipment like a large format CNC (ShopBot) and as you can see in the images, this requires quite a bit of new conduit and all new electrical panels. At this point, we have overhead for anything we might want to add now or anytime in the future! Checkout the latest images below!

Entry Way (opp wall)...that's the conf area and laser cutting room floating in the middle there.

Power!!!

More power!!

Presentation and Public-Events Space

Kitchen area looking out towards bathrooms and floating room (ok, that doesn't look like a kitchen, but it will)

Love the look of being lost in a big empty space about to be kitted out. The space is rocking and construction is happening every day! Going to be amazing!

So over the last week or so we *finally* began construction to build out the new Supplyframe Design Lab in Pasadena! Woo hoo!! Below are some pics that show the early demo work. Clearly we had to break a few eggs to make room for awesome.
