Hott 3D, the exhibition & experiential marketing company is pleased to announce its involvement with Future Cape Town and its ‘Your City Idea’ concept which was launched on the 17th of May 2012 at Cape Town’s new ideas district, The Fringe.
This is the first in a series of Activate Projects by Future Cape Town. Activate, is a sub-project of Future Cape Town which seeks to use structures, new and traditional media and powerful partnerships to engage citizens in different and innovative ways.
The public installation will offer visitors a chance to vote on two urban issues or questions, with four options to choose from. The options will be displayed as images or future visions for Cape Town, presented in four pigeon holes.
Hott3D’s involvement will be the design, manufacture and construction of the structures which will be used for this project. This investment is inline with Hott3D’s philosophy of giving back, and what better place to give back to, than our beautiful Cape Town and its people.
