How to construct iMAL's workshop

What could be salvaged from past was salvaged: furniture from IMAL’s fablab and all wood surfaces from soon to be dead WTC. The structures are hand painted with a hammered finish. The blue boxes are borrowed from the Mabru Morning Market in Brussels in exchange for a deposit. They might never return there.
