There are two ways to create items in Highrise: “Concepts” and “Ideas.”
HR Concepts are community creativity competitions centered on a particular theme. Submit your item designs for community voting. Top rated designs are made into real items released in events, grabs, or special sales.
Concepts are typically run one or two times per quarter, and vary in their individual requirements for item theme and item count.
Designers typically earn Earned Gold (EG) based on item rarity:
Rare: 50,000 EG
Epic: 70,000 EG
Legendary: 100,000 EG
Mythical: 150,000 EG
Designers receive bonus items (Account-Bound + tradable copies). The amount of bonus items depends on the item rarity.

HR Ideas is a crowdfunding platform on Highrise where users pitch wearable items to the community. The item is produced only if it reaches its preorder goal, which varies based on the item’s proposed rarity.
Ideas funding process:
Review Phase: Staff evaluates concept
Funding Phase (30 days): Users preorder at 50% discount
Production Phase (60 days): Item created and sold at full price
Idea designers receive 1% of the total Gold raised through community funding, credited as Earned Gold that can be used in-app or redeemed for cash via the Creator Exchange
Items from Highrise Ideas are exclusive to their funding/production windows. After that, they are tradable only
