Project Overview
Hipstoric Merch brings digital art to life by turning it into real, wearable, collectible, and giftable products. The line includes AR-activated apparel, fine-art posters, limited-edition NFTs, and 3D-printed jewelry. Each piece is designed to make digital creativity tangible — something people can hold, wear, share, and pass on. The project explores how digital culture can live beyond the screen and become part of everyday experience.
Wearable Tech
Hipstoric Merch extends digital art into the real world through interactive, AR-enabled apparel. Each piece includes a scannable code that unlocks an augmented reality experience, allowing wearers to activate animations, view digital layers, and explore media overlays directly from their phones. These garments function as both fashion and interface — turning everyday wear into an opportunity to engage, share, and participate in digital storytelling in public spaces.
Web App
The Hipstoric Merch web app allows anyone to explore AR effects instantly — no installation required. Visitors can scan a code, view the augmented artwork in their environment, and capture photos featuring the interactive effects. The interface is designed to be simple and intuitive, making it easy to preview digital layers, try on designs virtually, and share images across social platforms. The web app extends the reach of each piece, letting users experience the artwork anywhere, whether browsing at home or engaging with a pop-up installation.
NFTs Made Easy
Hipstoric NFTs are limited-edition pieces designed to be accessible, giftable, and easy to collect. Every edition is minted on Ethereum, registered on OpenSea, and delivered with a high-resolution display file for printing or exhibition. Each NFT includes a signed digital Certificate of Authenticity detailing series number, artwork metadata, and provenance. Friends and family can purchase or gift pieces without setting up a crypto wallet — transfers can be completed on their behalf — making digital collecting simple for first-time holders.
