Welcome to Center Rog
Center Rog is driven by urban handicraft traditions and state-of-the-art technology. It is an intersection of old and new. A lively place where modern designers and masters of traditional crafts, computer geeks and book moths, cooks and metalworkers, architects and carpenters, engineers, and curious people meet from morning until dawn. It is a factory of ideas where we run milling and sewing machines, biochemistry and imagination, a restaurant and workshops, a library and a cafe, a bistro and a fab lab, ideas, and tastes. The new Rog Center is the creative engine of Ljubljana and Slovenia. Here we turn ideas into products and socializing into experiences. See for yourself what we can do together. Visit Rog Labs and Rog Market, peek into the studios, and join the workshops.

Labs
In the production labs, you can tackle various manufacturing challenges with the help of equipment and machines. You can deal with very concrete and tangible challenges - from repairing various objects to improving and creating new, innovative, and socially useful products. To help you, there are mentors who guide you through training for different machines and help you achieve your goals. You can use labs independently according to membership fees and user packages. There are also scheduled guided courses, workshops for children and adults, master classes, hardware training, and holiday activities for children.
Studios
There are nineteen workspaces on the second and third floors, eighteen individual workspaces, and one group workspace where the Young Rog program takes place. The first generation of workspace users starts their work as soon as the centre opens.
