PRODUCTION PHASE

The Production Phase is when your Idea actually gets built. Once it's funded, the Highrise Art Team takes your design and turns it into a real item, working with you the whole way.

Working with the art team 🎨

• You'll get a message inviting you to a 1-1 conversation with our staff artists
• Use it to share extra references, notes, and anything that helps them understand the design
• You'll see a sneak peek of the item before it goes live
• Our artists follow your direction as closely as they fairly can. The goal is to release the item you designed, not our interpretation of it
• Where there are technical limits around layering or rendering, we'll explain them and suggest workarounds

This is your chance to exercise creative control, so speak up. If something doesn't look right to you, say so while there's still time to change it.

How long it takes

There's no fixed length. Items are finished when they're ready.

Production used to run for a minimum of two weeks whether the item needed it or not, which meant finished items sat waiting. Now they move as soon as they're done.

Preorders stay open 💸

Anyone can keep preordering the item, in any amount, at full price, right up until launch day. Nothing about the timeline cuts your earnings short.

What happens at the end 🛍️

• Your item goes on sale in the Highrise store on the next Monday, for 7 days
• You and everyone who backed the Idea receive your copies on launch day
• Items can't be traded or gifted during the sale week
• Once the week ends, the item trades like anything else
