Adopt a Robot: Recycled Robots by Massimo Sirelli

Italian artist Massimo Sirelli creates these super fun handmade recycled robots by assembling re-used gadgets, tin boxes, old metal pieces and let people adopt them.

Adotta un Robot (Adopt a Robot) is the first robot adoption centre in the world. It is home to robots orphaned by the industrial growth of consumerism, merchandising, retro computers and abandoned technology. Each robot has created with character and story behind and waiting for their turn to get adopted. It’s not just an economic gesture, but a gesture of love.

How to adopt a robot?

If you are hoping to adopt a robot, you first need to apply and explain why you are a good fit for the specific robot you picked. Once all good, you will receive it in a personalized box including a certificate of adoption for your new friend. Sounds super fun huh?
