Activate a place

01 · The first step towards your custode

Suggest a place

A closed public place, an event bringing people together, people who can help. First read how it works, if you have not already.

Submit your suggestion. We will review it together; once the place and its custode are published, you can download the kit with its dedicated QR code.

Step 1 of 6 · About you

What is missing

What will help get the proposal started

    This is advice: it does not prevent submission.

    About you

    Everything is required unless marked optional. These details help us understand whether the place can get started: who is involved, where it is, its condition and who can help.

    Enter your full name.

    Choose who you represent.

    Enter a valid email address.

    Enter a valid phone number.

    The place

    Enter the place’s name.

    Type the first few letters and choose from the list.

    Enter the town and choose it from the list.

    Enter the address.

    Where exactly is it?

    Tap the map at the exact location of the door. Or use your location if you are there, or paste a map link.

    Tap the map to mark the location.

    No location marked.

    A Google Maps or OpenStreetMap link, or two numbers such as “44.45, 8.06”.

    Who owns it?

    Public places only. We cannot currently activate privately owned places.

    Choose who owns the place.

    What is it like now?

    Choose its current condition.

    Does someone need to be there during the event?

    One person is enough, only if supervision is needed. Otherwise, set it up for independent visits: people can leave paper notes or use the QR code to talk with the custode.

    Choose an answer, including “I do not know yet”.

    Enter when, or “I do not know”.

    What it used to be, when it closed, who remembers it. For each detail, say who told you. If it is unknown, write “unknown”.

    Write what is known, even if the answer is “unknown”.

    Photos and videos

    At least 2 photos, up to 6: outside, the door, inside if possible.

      Add at least 2 photos.

      0 photos.

      One link per line, such as YouTube or a shared folder.

      The event

      An event bringing people to town: the place opens for a few days.

      Choose one of the three options.

      People who can help

      At least one person we can contact: whoever holds the keys, the event organiser, a potential human custodian or someone who knows its history. It can be you.

        Add at least one person.

        Why this place

        Tell us why you chose this place.
