Additive Manufacturing
3D printing is the main medium for form, iteration and small-scale production.
Personal manufacturing studio
Objects with a little more life.
IMBA Studio develops playful physical objects through 3D printing, mechanisms, electronics and small-run finishing.
Three object records.
Known work, presented with only verified material, purpose and status details.
What we build with.
Product Design & Fabrication
Objects may combine laser work, mechanical structures and electronics.
Open Hardware & Design Sharing
Open-design collaboration is considered when the object and context support it.
Built different, deliberately.
Precision at small scale. Single pieces, micro-batches and objects a factory will not touch.
Start a conversationFrom idea to object.
+SketchDefine the effect, form and physical behavior.
×PrototypeTest shape, tolerance and mechanism.
#Print & FinishMake, refine and preserve visible material evidence.
*ReleaseDocument the object and state its availability clearly.
Latest Studio Log
No Studio Logs are published yet. Future records will document print failures, material tests, decisions and tolerances.
Open Studio LogsObjects are being prepared.
Visit the coming Shop view or start a practical conversation about a custom object.
Work, as object records.
Each record starts with one visual, a plain description and only the material or status facts already confirmed.

Future object records
New work will appear here after its imagery, facts and release status are verified.
A documented making journal.
Studio Logs will collect print failures, material tests, decisions and tolerances without turning unfinished work into marketing claims.
No Studio Logs published yet.
The first verified making record will appear here when it is ready.
Quests return soon.
Maker challenges, open design prompts and community fabrication experiments. The platform is relaunching soon.
Relaunching soon
Make, test, share.
Quests will provide a focused place for open prompts and fabrication experiments. No challenge is listed until its scope is real.
Object drops are being prepared.
The Shop is not launched. No price, inventory, release date or checkout is presented until those details are confirmed.
Shop coming soon
Small runs, stated clearly.
Future object drops will pair real photography with verified materials, status and acquisition details.
Let's make something.
Discuss a custom object, small run, enclosure, open-design collaboration or a thing that needs to click, light or move.
