Fix è un progetto che prende vita a Istanbul, città ad alto rischio sismico. Seppur con questa caratteristica, gli abitanti del luogo si siano poco adoperati per mettere in sicurezza loro e le loro case così che ne risulta un alto tasso di mortalità. Il progetto, declinato secondo la logica del product service system, vuole entrare nelle case dei cittadini e, con semplici ma efficaci mezzi, risolvere il problema urgente della messa in sicurezza degli ambienti privati. Fix è un servizio offerto da Koçtaş, importante catena turca del bricolage che grazie alla sua forte presenza sul territorio, promuove la sicurezza degli abitanti di Istanbul tramite prodotti specifici e certificati, e ad un team di esperti dedicati alla consulenza e all'installazione dei sistemi anti-crollo degli oggetti.
