The new graffiti limited edition from Canyon will highly appeal to young, urban and modern people who seek unique products as an extension of their personality and lifestyle. “Graffiti is a hot trend at this moment” confirms Ivo van Houten, Marketing Director. “We’ve researched a lot among our target group and decided to go ahead with this Limited Edition. It is definitely a unique and exciting project, and we are convinced of market’s positive reaction.”

Inspired by the Urban Art contest held last spring by Canyon, five colorful graffiti patterns were selected to be applied to these products. “Our goal was to create something fresh, bold and daring” said Catherine Lazure-Guinard, Communications Manager. “With the graffiti limited edition, we challenge the industry’s design standards and offer something never seen before. This testifies that Canyon is not your typical IT brand.”

Canyon will donate 5% of profits made from sales of this Limited Edition to child aid projects, with the hope to give children a chance in society and to make a lasting, long term difference on a community.

For this exciting project, Net4Kids Aid Foundation, a Dutch non-profit organization, will help Canyon with its mission to help getting children off the streets and provide them with opportunities for a better future.
