CROP >> The Initiative launches Adottaunprototipo:
1) Choose a Product That You Believe In,
2) Adopt it by Participating in the making of the proyotype
3) And Then You May Bring home the first piece.
We are proposing That You buy the object even before it is born, leaving it in “DESIGNERS ‘ hands for a photoshoot or for Participating at an event. Afterwords it will be sent to your home and it will be yours forever.
if you’re a designer:
publish a project for free so it can be adopted and create the prototype with the adopter’s funds. You will have the oportunity to study it’s feasibility thanks to the contribution of a sponsor that believing in you, will finance your work. Use it for a photoshoot, an exhibition, a show and then hand it over to him, along with a certificate of authenticity left by adoptaprototype. Of course the project will remain yours!!!!
Adoptaprototype is a great oportunity for transforming ideas in objects.
