Abstract
Sur is the prototype of a relational service for gift production. Sur is aimed at articulating, nourishing and strengthening relationships between the giver and the receiver of the gift. The co-production of personalised gifts is supervised and guided by a designer and supported by a network of crafts(wo)men-makers. Sur provides the opportunity not only to reflect upon the issue “sharing and collaborating”, but also, more in general, upon the role of gifts within services and especially within relational services.
