Friperie

Multisites

“Friperie” (“thrift store”) is a public conversation device based on the barter of clothing.

It consists of a mobile unit (bike-closet, computer, printer and textile press) allowing the personalization of clothing based on images and stories taken from intervention sites. Passers-by barter their clothes for others already personalized or personalize them directly with us.
