Labitat

The term for such a space is either HackSpace or FabLab depending on whether the focus is on personal fabrication and prototyping or creative use of technology in general. There is a list of these spaces on [1]. As said, "hacker" is not used here to describe persons or activities that are illegal as it is generally used in the media, but rather in its original meanings from the Hacker Jargon File, e.g: "A person who delights in having an intimate understanding of the internal workings of a system, computers and computer networks in particular."
