The maker space, an industrial loft. A concrete ceiling with linear lights, a grey resin floor, plywood walls and storage, and a big central workbench on steel legs with drawers. Three 3D printers in a row of cabinets, a laser cutter, a pegboard wall of hand tools over a long electronics bench with a magnifier lamp and a soldering station, yellow stools and bins, and tall steel windows with trees and a brick building outside rather than Market Row.
