Welcome!
Hey! Welcome to my Fab Academy journey. I am Abhishek Shah and I am student of the 2026 class at the Super Fablab Kerala (Kochi). This site is a living record of my learning, experiments, failures, and discoveries during Fab Academy. It documents how ideas turn into prototypes through digital fabrication and hands-on making. I believe in learning by building, and this website captures that process week by week. Check out the weekly assignments.
About me
I am an engineer and I like building things that move, cool, blink, and make life a little better. Iām driven by curiosity and the joy of making ideas real ā I feel the need to strengthen my foundation in digital fabrication to take my ideas further. I see Fab Academy as a turning point in my journey ā a bridge between my technical past and my entrepreneurial future.
Previous work
My interests span sustainable mobility, computational textiles, and socially impactful technology. Below are some of the projects I aspire to build include but not limited to, during and after my Fab Academy.
