Our cities and spaces are embodied with a seemingly unlimited amount of textures that enable our experiences. These textures and surfaces hold meaning and make up the â&#x20AC;&#x153;skinâ&#x20AC;? of our world. The combination of textures and materials in each city create the atmosphere and attribute to the overall experience.

What better way to remember a city, than to have your own little piece of its environment and texture?

- COLLECTABLE KINETIC ART PIECE FOR THE HOME - CONCEPT CollectHive is a collectible set of kinetic artifacts that have a constant direct connection into the city of their origin. The individual products are constructed of a combination of textures and materials, from its city, to emphasis the overall aesthetic and feel of the environment and to serve as a reminder of the moments that the owner spent there. Each collectHive piece works as a kinetic object that is always in constant sync with live stream weather data from its city that it was born in. The weather data that it draws upon consist of temperature, visibility, and condition. Each triangular piece rotates according to this data. The three different data combined are meant to give the viewer a sense of the mood, environment, and emotions in that city. The product is a wall-mounted, module hexagon, that allows the collection to grow overtime and be assembled nicely together, as seen above. As the collector visit more cities, more collectHive products are gathered and will then be added to the owner’s wall in their place of choosing. CollectHive’s purpose is to create a personal installation that works as a “portal” to the memories and moments that the owner has spent in cities all around the world and allows them to have a never ending connection to these cities.

Collect Hive inspirers the collector to travel and reminisce on their adventures.

Collect Hive pieces gather real time data from all of the cities traveled to.

Waiting for them at home, is the new Collect Hive piece to add to their wall.

Collector returns home.

- COLLECT HIVE SHAPE INSPIRATION CONCEPT- CONCEPT The concept and design for the collectHive line was inspired by bee, their hive, and their waggle dance. Just as bees fly from their home to collect pollen, people fly to new cities to collect memories and new experiences. When bees find flowers with a lot of pollen, they return to the hive to show the other bees where the pollen is. They share this information by dancing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;waggle dance.â&#x20AC;?

- CONCEPT The waggle dance consist of a particular figure eight motion that the bee does to help the other bees navigate. This dance was the inspiration for the way that the triangles rotate within the collectHive pieces. The way that bees tell other bees about the pollen, is how people tell others about their memories and adventures.

collectHive co ec H v

Hexagon, module shape to collect the “cells” of the hive. Made of wood and incases all of the mechanical equipment. Triangles are moving in a way that resembles the “waggle” dance of the bees. The movement is drawn form weather from the city of the object’s origin.

The triangles are each made up of the most used textures and materials from the city of the object’s origin.

APP DESCRIPTION COLLECTHIVE APP/BRAND

The collectHive app works as a purchasing app for the customer to buy a new piece for their hive. The app promotes the user with a message when they travel to a new city to inspire them to bring a little piece of that environment home with them through the collectHive object.
