The place where ideas become physical
The Design and Build Lab is a digital fabrication, rapid prototyping, and experimentation space at American University, located in the Don Myers Technology and Innovation Building and established February 12, 2018. DaBL serves as an educational resource to all students, staff, and faculty of AU. Our continuing mission is to teach our members toÌýcreate things to solve problemsÌýthrough hands-on experience in designing and building.Ìý
Members of the AU community can learn how to get involved by checking out our membership page. All members have access to the tools housed in DaBL, some of which can be found on our equipment page. Educational resources include our staff of Creative and Technical Specialists (CaTS), who are thoroughly trained students who can aid in lab support.
