RAIDS & RIOTS | Speculative Design Project

THE PROJECT
The system we live in tends to appropriate of every fight initially started by the masses. This speculative project is an attempt to make people aware of how the system blurs the limits between what is a fight against the system and what is a possible source of money and power for the system itself. When you buy a "feminist" t-shirt from one of the biggest brands in the world, are you really supporting the movement or are you oppressing the asian girl who produced it? When social media activists use twitter or facebook to create events or #trends, are they really going against the system or are they just the extra piece, the limits, the system wants them to be?





THE BRAND
RAIDS & RIOTS is a brand specialized products that help their customers to create riots and defend themselves in raids. They have three main customer profiles: the thug, the firebug and the barker, and each one of them has completely different needs. Therefore, the thuggish kit has a baseball bat and some paving stones while the firebug presents a wide range of incendiary tools such as Molotov cocktails or fire extinguishers, being the barker the less aggressive, with accessories like megaphones, sprays or markers.
