RSA: Shared Assets "Have to Give"

Brief
Design a service, that gets better or more useful the more people use it, so that sharing it becomes more attractive or viable.

Purpose
The purpose of this project is to encourage people to share their no longer used belongings, because the trash for one is a treasure for another. The purpose is to change peoples perspective on charity sharing, and to inform them about the benefits sharing does for the environment and the world we live in.



Preposition
After some research I realized, that the best way to make people share their belongings these days is through internet platform. People advertise much more online in recent years - houses, cars, electronics - you name it. This is why they would choose to notify online, about their no longer used sofa, couch, table etc. Design and art students, involved in the process will redesign the furniture and then the furniture will be donated to homes for children, old people or families in need of furniture.


Main Purposes
- Ambition people to share
- Promote charity sharing
- Inform people about the benefits of sharing
- Promote redesign of furniture and art students involved in that

Questions
How to make people share?
How to engage students with the cause?
How to present it the best way it can?

Formula


Charity + Sharing + Art
