[Economy & Culture] Care for a donut? 🍩

“Mmmh… donuts.” — Homer Simpson

A simple image to explore a very real challenge: how can we design cultural projects that are both socially useful and environmentally responsible?

At BavAR[t] (BavartApp), we draw inspiration from Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics to rethink culture.

A simple yet essential idea: social progress and planetary boundaries should no longer be considered separately.

🍩 The social foundation first
Heritage should not remain locked away in servers or invisible archives.
It is a common good.
With augmented reality, we make it accessible to everyone, for free, in public space.
Every street can become a place of discovery. Every sidewalk can become an open-air #museum.

🌍 Then the environmental ceiling
Traditional cultural mediation often relies on panels, plastic, metal, and ongoing maintenance.
Our approach is different:

  • Zero physical infrastructure
  • Less material
  • Less waste
    More stories.

🚀 Our conviction
Moving from a logic of accumulation to a logic of use value.
Producing less, but revealing better what already exists.
Digital technology should not distance us from reality — it should reconnect us to it.
The future of #heritage will be sustainable… or it won’t exist.

And you — how do you imagine the city of tomorrow?
A city that adds more… or a city that reveals? 🤝
