HYPE! Project
Pet Adoption


     For my Hype Project I decided to promote pet adoption. For this purpose I created a bag, using three materials: felt (bag - laser cut and engraved through Ponoko), acrylic (charms – laser cut and engraved through Ponoko), and metal (snaps and chains).
      The bag has words engraved on its surface –ADOPT A PET – on one side, SAVE A LIFE – on the other. Four charms support this message (don’t shop – adopt, stop animal abuse, be a hero-adopt, stop puppy mills). I believe that when this bag is worn, it will attract people’s attention, and act as an advertisement for pet adoption.
