How to run a repair event

Visual Identity

We call ourselves The Restart Project, and our wish is to see the Restart Party proliferate. Already existing organisations will take on Restart Parties as activities in their communities and recruit volunteers for these events called Restarters.

We are NOT promoting the establishment of new Restart Project chapters, franchises or local NGOs.

Do’s and Don’t’s


DO call your event a Restart Party and use this logo on your banner or poster

DO indicate which local organisations are hosting and sponsoring (in your posters and banners)

DO use Patua One, a free font download

DO NOT imply your event is run by the Restart Project

DO NOT use our logo on its own ran- domly, or add to it

DO NOTsquash the logo or change its colour

Local identity

You will find that some people self-identify as Restarters, and that you need a pool of Restarters to power a Restart Party, or to power a local repair cafe. We provide some visual elements to recruit and motivate Restarters online and in real life.


Use these to recruit people, including on social media and online. You can also include your location…


Use these as avatars on social media
You can pick your favorite colour and use as profile photo on social networks.

If you’d like your own web address or redirect, please choose something like www.restartersnapoli.it
(Please do not suggest that you are a franchise or chapter of The Restart Project by choosing something like: www.restart.it or www.restartproject.it)
