4D Lab.berlin is an engineering studio dedicated to helping you bring your product ideas to life — from first prototypes to small-scale production.
We specialize in building systems and methods for decentralized production — empowering local, resilient manufacturing networks instead of relying on centralized mass production.

Our Approach
At 4D Lab.berlin, we believe the future of manufacturing isn't bigger — it's more distributed, more local, and more resilient.
Decentralized production means moving away from centralized factories and long supply chains, and instead enabling tools, methods, and systems that allow products to be made closer to where they're needed.
Whether it's a small production run in a city lab or a network of microfactories collaborating across regions, our goal is to help businesses and communities take ownership of how things are made.
We design for flexibility, repairability, and empowerment — because we believe that how we make things shapes the kind of world we live in.
