Fab Lab Barcelona, a benchmark in the global Fab Labs network, was established in 2007 as the first Fab Lab in the European Union[1] by the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC).[2] Located in Barcelona's Poblenou district, this former factory has transformed into a hub of ideas, innovation, and education. It quickly became a leader in the maker culture and digital fabrication, contributing significantly to the global network of Fab Labs.[3] The lab is renowned for blending digital fabrication technologies with community-driven[4] and pedagogical innovation.[5] It is home of the Distributed Design platform, the exchange and networking hub for the European maker movement, promoting the connection between designers, makers, and the market.[6]
