HOW DID THE IDEA EMERGE?

START By moving from the question of “how to improve the life with animals in Milan�, it has been decided to make a change for a subject affecting the majority of Milanese habitants and chosen to focus on the pets and pet owners in the city.

THE RESEARCH After a wide research, specially based on observation and interviews with pet owners, non-pet owners, veterineries, kennel personnel, a clear problem was pointed out: common ignorance about the kennel of Milan which was a great source for people who want to own a pet but which was also suffering from lack of fundings and especially promotion.

THE PROBLEM According to the results, while many Milanese were owning a pet, nearly all of them got their pets from petshops, and in addition to that most of these owners were showing their love and affection to their beloved animals with excessive amount of spendings for the pet products.

RESEARCH, TRENDS, CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT.........................................................................................


CONCEPT GENERATION With the main purpose of providing support to the kennel the brainstorming started. After hours of thinking a simple but effective concept came up, which was merging a solution for the problem of both getting a new pet, and showing affection to an existed one in the most environmentally and financially sustainable way.

THE FIRST PROPOSAL The first proposal of the service had two main weaknesses: an individual physical store in the city which was causing a very high cost structure, and a poor method of communication which was not sufficient enough to convey the main purpose of the service. But the main concept was proved to be quite strong and got positive feedback from the contributors of a small scale prototyping phase.

IMPLEMENTATION The next step was fixing the weak points of the service, and after the problems solved, the idea of ‘giving second chances’ turned into a service designed for helping the kennel.

HOW DOES THE WORKSHOP WORK?

THE LOCATION The workshop is located in an empty area in the Parco Canile Rifugio, next to the management offices. The location is chosen not only to reduce the cost of managing a place in the city but also taking attention to the kennel of Milan and introducing the animals of kennel to Milanese people.

FUNCTIONS The workshop is the magic factory, where used pet products are turned into renewed, stylish products for their new owners by our two talented craftmen. It functions as a simple atelier where cleaning, fixing, painting, upholstering, and decorating of the used products take place.

DESIGN The building is constructed by using eight old shipping containers with respect to the philosophy of company about extending life cycle of products. First two containers in the front side are reserved as a showroom and retail area for the renewed products. The other five containers are furnished as a workspace for the needed renewing actions.

HOW DOES THE VAN WORK?

FUNCTIONS The Repetit van is one of the classics, which is not hiding its age, but still working like the its first day. It is used for the collection of the donated products from the donators to the workshop in the kennel, and the delivery of the renewed products from workshop to customers. However it is more than a transportation tool, and also works as a mobile showroom for the new products and display of the seasonal changes in the company’s product line.

...........................................................................................................TOUCHPOINTS: VAN PERSPECTIVE 17


DESIGN The van is modified according to the different needs of company. The back seats are removed for more free space. A special partition is added behind for the carriage of the animal models from the kennel. For the event days two accordion style opening display units, which are made of old fences attached together with hinges, are placed into the van due to exhibit the products.

EVENTS The Repetit van, once in two weeks, starts its journey from the kennel with some new products, the company’s models, animals of kennel to one of the parks of Milan, which is defined before. These events which are spiced up with a small demonstration of a renewal process, provides company a way of exhibiting the products and promoting for the kennel with the advantage of direct interaction with the donators, customers and potential adopters.
