English Synopsis
Blu Dot is an award-winning creator of modern furniture. But awareness of the brand was limited. So we took to the streets. Inspired by the New York City culture of curb-mining or picking up furniture from the street, we devised an experiment. We placed 25 of Blu Dot’s Real Good Chairs all over Manhattan, free to take. The catch: we enabled the chairs with GPS to see where they’d go. The two-day multimedia experiment featured a website with real-time tracking, Twitter feeds, and a documentary that revealed the whereabouts of the chairs and told the story of their new owners.
