#CHUMBRELLA

Project Manager & Designer

#chumbrella is a social tool, a pop up shared space which promotes connectivity with people who share our streets. 

By holding a #chumbrella the individual is giving tacit consent for another person to share their space, whether the reason is for protection from the elements, or just a friendly chat. 

Over recent years the global shift to text/type conversations has altered the way in which we communicate, consume and interact with others around us. 

Living in the physical is becoming increasingly alien as we disconnect with the people around us in favour of the digital medium. Whilst accepting this social shift #chumbrella provides real moments of value and aims to enrich our experience of public spaces by removing barriers and highlighting the benefits of face to face communication.
