FIX or MIX

This Learning Lab will explore the topic of circular economy, teaching students basic repair skills in electronic equipment, furniture and garments. In an additional step and if the products are beyond repair, students learn how to disassemble the objects back to usable items, analyze their potential functions and design new appliances by combining components.

Format: The hub will host repair workshops at its premises, leading students through a product design process. The facilitators are professional industrial designers with long experience in co-creation processes.
