Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Mc Laughlin is a multidisciplinary designer and maker with 11 years' experience blending digital fabrication, architecture and product design. As Managing Director of MONARÚ and winner of Limerick Entrepreneur of the Year 2024, he leads a workshop that merges CNC precision and traditional craft to produce bespoke birch plywood furniture and film/TV props. He also teaches digital design and fabrication at Limerick School of Art and Design, having helped found and coordinate the low-cost, open-source Fab Lab Limerick. His background spans architecture, landscape and furniture design, giving him a systems-level approach to materials, manufacturing and site. Equally comfortable at the drawing board, the CNC, and the classroom, he champions accessible digital fabrication and iterative making. A lesser-known strength is his proven ability to turn experimental open-source toolchains into viable local manufacturing workflows.
