People throughout history – desiring to express their love – have left their love messages and love marks everywhere- carved in trees, written on benches, sprayed on walls or locked to a bridge.
So, we said let’s give everyone a unique canvas to write their own love message on, and leave their own love mark. The canvas we chose is a cube – a love cube as we call it – where you inscribe your own personal love message, For example “I love you!”
We’ll collect all the messages, written in different languages, inscribe them on the love cubes, and then use them as the building blocks to create a unique global monument of Love! The Lovemark!
The world’s first crowdfunded monument of Love!
An actual, physical architectural structure, The Lovemark, will be constructed out of thousands of love cubes – the actual building blocks of the monument. Contributors to our crowdfunding campaign can get their own love cube on The Lovemark and personalize it with an inscription of their own love message to leave their lovemark in history! A unique act of love for this holiday season, for special occasions and an extraordinary gift for Valentine Day! Every love cube helps The Lovemark grow into a true landmark!
The team behind The Lovemark is truly diverse. We come from different countries, representing different cultures and professional backgrounds, speaking 12 different languages.
We have all come together – architects, creative designers, volunteers and ambassadors – and joined forces to give people a chance to leave their lovemark in History.

The Love Cubes will be available through the crowdfunding platform indiegogo.com The Lovemark will be built once we reach our minimum funding target! Each Love Cube contributes an amount towards this target! If the minimum funding target is missed then contributors will get a full refund from the crowdfunding platform.
25 people in the team 12 languages spoken 5 continents we call home 4,000 Facebook likes on Dec 18th 60 days campaign on Indiegogo 175,000 USD minimum funding target
The Lovemark will be an actual, physical architectural structure, built from top quality materials that have high corrosion resistance and strength in order to stand the test of time.
The Lovemark’s design has been created by European and US architects and is based on two discrete characteristics that blend harmonically: the robustness of a cube-shaped landmark and the softness and passion of a carved-out heart.
Since the actual building blocks are the individual love cubes, the final dimensions of the Lovemark will depend on the number of people that participate.
The Lovemark will be an interactive monument! It is designed to recognize its founders – whoever contributed to the campaign – and will light up to show its gratitude when they visit it.
By contributing to The Lovemark crowdfunding campaign contributors will be making an extraordinary love gift, so we have a few amazing perks to surprise their loved ones, their friends or family.
The contributors can choose from a variety of perks depending on the amount of their contribution, including the following: An inscription of their personal love message on their own love cube on the monument Choice of color and exact position of their love cube on the structure A replica of the actual love cube as it will appear on the monument A limited edition woven bracelet “Leave your Lovemark in history” A numbered card enhanced with augmented reality (i.e. they can scan the card with their smart phone and see the monument in 3D)
The Lovemark campaign was launched on Indiegogo.com on 17 Dec 2013. It will be open through 14 February 2014.
