lab status: online · 4 experiments in production

A hacker
design lab.

enkilabs is the personal workshop of Albert Oliva: the place where ideas get prototyped, broken, fixed and eventually turned into real products. Four projects, one person, zero excuses.

[ 01 ] projects

Hi, I'm Albert.

Developer, designer and eternal tinkerer. enkilabs is my space to build my own projects with total freedom: from infrastructure for Ruby developers to platforms that help people share rides or swap things. If one of them catches your eye, give it a try — and if you have feedback, I'd love to hear it.
