Do you have a DIY project that you want to get fabricated? Take a tour of our Design/ Build Studio and learn how to make the most out of less. Come with ideas! Learn to find refurbished and recycled woods, fix broken pieces of furniture. We are design/build and we like to make things!

In this hands session you will:

• Tour our Brooklyn woodshop and design studio *HB* Collaborative
• Learn how we design and built our successful Kickstarter project Plant-in City and for clients like Alexander Wang, Hi-Res!, Stephen Talasnik, Gargyle, Surface to Air, 80%20
• Get hands on instruction on how to use basic hand tools, woods and finishes to start your own project
• Find the best local suppliers of wood, hardware and tools need for your project

Come with ideas so that we can help you find the best ways to create your project! If you have a  project for your apartment or if you need a planter box for your window, this class will give you the skills to accomplish your goal. 

This workshop is held at our woodshop so wear appropriate clothing. Also please bring a notebook and pencil. We will also be providing a resource book at the end of the class outlining the various topics we covered and also listing our favorite sources for local materials, supplies, tools and advice.

This workshop is a prerequisite to our Design-Build * Maker Workshop: Fabricate your ideas where we will guide and help you complete your own DIY project.
