description The Industrial Revolution 4.0 implies diverse challenges, framed by relationships between concepts where new production and commercialization models, global immediacy and internet access, can have a hierarchical associations in aspects of everyday life. It is an ideal speech, that doesn’t consider a fragmentation in the big picture, problems emerging from an unbridled consumption society, lack of identity and local production, generating an absence of acknowledgment and significance of distinctive concepts. Is alarming from this point of view, that a domination possibility is still present, if there isn’t a proposal to ‘promote people’s creative autonomy, social equity and wellness, including collective control over energy and work” (Escobar, 2016), the power to decide over ourselves, as a community. This is the reason why, from all diverse perspectives to assume additive manufacturing, the appropriation from users as a creative and political act, can be a step closer to achieve the concept of technology democratization, giving answer to everyday life situations. In this quest  three concepts, Repair, Adapt and Customize, can act as guidelines to apply additive manufacturing in different contexts, to the industrial one. Seen from furniture, the elements that compose domestic environments, are repaired, adapted and customize, from users perspective. Sometimes furniture is repaired as an attempt to extend its useful and significative lifetime, on other occasions furniture is reformed as an alternative to adapt it to specific necessities, it is also appropriated by detail applications, to step out from product homogeneity and differentiate them; this are interesting practices because enlighten some ways about how users assume objects, giving also the possibility to understand their dynamics and construe them to additive manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing assimilation from day to day environments, cab be a contribution to consumerism, lack of appropriation and disposal problems. It is an exploration, that deserves to be deepen, next to concepts as open design and communal creation, where free access and collaborative environments can widen the design frontiers, “the capacity to design as a way of thinking and making, involving reflection and strategic sense, forcing to look at us and our environment, and to decide what can we do to improve the current state of things” (Manzini, 2015). This panorama, allows the empowerment of local cultural concept, making a real revolution with access to manufacturing technologies, assumed by autonomy
