makeX: Teen Mobile Makerspace project recognised for inovation

The Urban Libraries Council has awarded the City of Palo Alto library  as a top innovator for their makeX: Teen Mobile Makerspace project, which features several pieces produced by Hero Design. We worked with the local teens and architecture firm Knoll and Tam to design furniture for the teen mobile makerspace.

We had so much fun working on this great project. We were lucky enough to run into some of the students we worked with at Maker Faire this year and they loved all the pieces we made for them, although I think they loved their laser cutter more (which we can understand).

Congratulations to the City of Palo Alto Library, and everyone else who worked on the project with us.
