In the New York City area, they can come to Length Width Height (LXWXH), the fabrication lab at LaGuardia's NYDesigns. The lab provides access to equipment; guided instruction by a professional fabricator; opportunity for collaboration with NYDesigns resident designers, and other resources so designers can bring their creations to life. Companies of all sorts have used the lab to make objects, scenes and exhibits. Designers may use the equipment themselves, or they can have the LXWXH team do the production work for them. Notable projects include making some of the wings that models wore in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2010 that aired on CBS in November and an exhibit that has been built for Madame Tussauds New York's wax museum. LXWXH fabrication lab intern works on a project for a novelty furniture company. Recently, LXWXH collaborated with fashion brand JF and Son and industrial designer Kevin McElroy to produce a line of laser-cut clothing pieces, which were exhibited on March 28 at JF and Son's flagship store in downtown Manhattan. The line, which will go into general production in summer 2011, attracted interest from magazines such as Women Wear Daily (WWD), Elle, Harper's Bazaar and Paper Magazine. Other clients of the lab include Ally Bank, Discovery Channel, Hyundai and Yahoo. “In our lab designers can experiment, build products, and network with professionals in the industry,” says Natalia Arguello, Director of NYDesigns. “Our members share knowledge, expertise and resources. This combination makes LXWXH the perfect spot for young firms looking to grow and stay connected to the fabrication community in New York.” The lab has been operating since May 2010 and sees 20-30 clients a month using the equipment and services.
