From how humble and down-to-earth she is, you would never know that Grace’s site Design*Sponge currently has 43,000 daily readers. She’s a veritable force, managing a team of 10 editors at the same time as writing a book. But it certainly hasn’t gone to her head. Grace told us, “We’re all still sort of doing [...]

But the guys behind MakerBot are taking 3D printing one step farther, and envisioning a future in which everyone shops for products online and then prints them out right at home.

She dug the architecture, design and humongous machines but could pass on the loan requisitions, punch lists and filing. So she quit her job and started her own company! We’re big fans of her work [...]

Francois started UM (short for Users & Makers) with a mission – to celebrate the craftmanship behind great design. In Francois’ words: “In music, the musician plays the instrument.
