foster collaboration within the cultural sector
The project wants to actively engage art and design related agents and cultural institutions to start working together to open the way for new sustainable cultural practices.
By offering the right network in the right moment we want to facilitate the process of material exchange and foster a spirit of collaboration, encouraging the exchange and sharing of knowledge and ideas.

focus on material waste
Facilitate the research for a second life. We want to think about scattered materials as common good, which are able to produce new value, both social and economic. There are many ways that materials can enjoy of a collective life passing from one user to another. This is already happening in many different big cities.
Why not Athens? Why not now?
If you want to donate us your scattered materials, you could start by declaring the availability of materials, giving us and the network the right time to plan and organize an alternative use, find the next user and organize their transportation.
