About The LAB
The LAB, founded in 1993, is a unique and vibrant brand that aims to combat retail monotony. The name LAB stands for Little American Business, which reflects their commitment to supporting independent businesses. Located in Costa Mesa, The LAB was originally recycled from a night-vision goggle factory and has since become a hub for art, music, fashion, and hip cuisine.
This one-of-a-kind establishment features a diverse selection of cafes, restaurants, and retail shops, all housed in an unconventional indoor-outdoor space. The LAB is known for its creative evolution, showcasing various art installations and local artist features through musical events, rotating murals, graphic design, walk-thru galleries, and visual merchandising installations. Visitors can also explore unique features like the community wall mosaic project, the wishing tree messaging install, and the community seating area known as The Living Room.
With its vibrant community and commitment to creativity, The LAB offers a truly memorable experience for lovers of art, music, and the unconventional. Visit The LAB in Costa Mesa to immerse yourself in a world of artistic expression and originality
