HYPE. What’s this?
Hype’s translation is “whipping” or “inflating”. It is born in the advertising field and represents the marketing strategy to create strong expectations for a product. Playing with this aspect for the launch of the site we wanted to create a product that describes this type of expectation. A product that comes from waiting for something, creating strong expectations, inflating a certain news or creating a strong desire.
Turin-based Paolo Reato Design Studio believes in HYPE as a product that could self-inflate and be at the same time useful for relaxation and leisure. To see more, visit www.paoloreato.com.
