The Distributed Design Platform acts as an exchange and networking hub for the emerging field of Distributed Design. The initiative aims at developing and promoting the connection between designers, makers and emerging digital and local markets. Emerging at the intersection of the Maker Movement and design sensibility, Distributed Design provides a framework for designers, makers and creatives to innovate the field of design towards more sustainable, open, inclusive and collaborative practices. The Distributed Design Platform was established in 2017, co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the European Union. It brings together a diverse member-base from cultural and creative institutions including Fab Labs, cultural organisations, universities and makerspaces. The Platform provides Europe-wide programming and opportunities to support emerging creatives working in the emerging field of Distributed Design.

CENTRINNO is a research project focused on industrial historical sites under transformation. It will showcase the potential of these cultural landscapes to become new and inclusive hubs of entrepreneurship for city residents while fostering sustainability. The CENTRINNO network will comprise the local Fab City Hub networks and activities with an approach driven by social inclusion and communing of resources. Funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme, POP-MACHINA is a project born from the idea to demonstrate the potential and relevancy of both the maker movement and collaborative production to progressively implement a necessary circular economy model at the European scale. Engaging various organisations and communities across 7 different countries within the next 4 years, the objective of POP-MACHINA is to enhance, support and monitor Circular Maker Communities in these 7 pilot areas.

Fab City Hub is the physical manifestation of the ideas and values of Fab Cities. Our team represents this vision and materializes it in a space open to the local community. We are an open innovation lab and ecosystem for individuals and organisations to design sustainable solutions to complex urban food, water and waste challenges. The hub encourages creativity, collaboration, experimentation and play through incubating ideas which adapt systems to become increasingly productive and resilient. We create workshops, lectures, experiences and a podcast around the topics of the future of food, materials and energy.

Make Works is a global library for local manufacturing, connecting people who want to make with people who do. Make Works partners with individuals and organisations across the globe who want to run their own open-access directory of manufacturing for their local area. Our partners aren't just people using our platform - they are fellow manufacturing geeks who are passionate about local manufacturing from perspectives including creativity, sustainability, economy. More recently, in 2019, Make Works has been transferred to Fab Lab Barcelona at the The Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC), and sits within the Distributed Design Platform, funded by Creative Europe and EU funded project CENTRINNO.

Design and Research Focussing on creating holistic methodologies about the future of food. Currently developing an online platform to share knowledge and insights about growing, fermenting, preserving and building grow systems such as aeroponics. Future Growing Systems - Aeroponics Aeroponic systems have been proposed as a functional, sustainable solution for urban agriculture. Currently developing an open-source grow kit which can be implemented in educational systems to teach kids/ teenagers about how to grow produce starting from the seed to harvest. Introducing them into having a tangible experience with making, which includes the building of the system, getting to know electronics and mechanics and having the first encounter with coding. Workshops Local workshop about food such as: fermenting, pickling and kombucha as well as planing to make workshops happening around how to build aeroponics including electronics and coding. Dedicated to anyone who enjoys food and would like to start growing it. The project was exhibited during the Biotopia EAT Festival in Munich.
