N2 - Makerspace has become an increasingly fashionable term that many communityspaces use to label themselves. In this paper, we identify makerspace as anexperience-led community space where people gather to make things togetherwith the assistance of both digital and traditional making tools. This paper takesthe inspiration from both Tuan’s definition of place and Lefebvre’s ‘triad spatialmodel’ and offers a unique analysis of what makerspace is in relation to makers’experience. In addition, we would also like to discuss how these insights couldinform future makerspace design.
