§ 1 — Sens de la chaîne Q118·Q120
A model is a representation or example of something, including a person who displays fashion or products, and a designed, built, or digital version created to show, test, or refine an idea.
/ˈmɒd.əl/
§ 2 — Mission et objet Q133
1. Describe the mission and purpose of the applied-for gTLD.
.model helps fashion and talent professionals and design and prototyping studios create a clear and memorable online presence for the work they present, making it easier to be discovered, understood, and booked. It puts a recognizable industry term directly in the web address, so a portfolio or a body of design work signals its discipline at first glance.
Intended Registrants:
Fashion and talent models, modeling and casting agencies, product and industrial designers, design studios, 3D and CAD modelers, architectural visualization firms, model-making workshops, and creative professionals who build representations of ideas or products.
Intended Users:
Casting directors, brands, art directors, recruiters, manufacturers, and clients searching for talent or design work; along with peers, collaborators, and audiences who follow a model's portfolio or a designer's body of work online.
Related Activities Supporting the Purpose:
• Awareness-building across fashion, casting, and design communities.
• Registrar distribution to reach creative professionals and studios.
• Registrant education on presenting portfolios and bodies of work under a clear, category-specific address.
• Community outreach to modeling agencies, design schools, and maker collectives.
• Responsible registry operations consistent with standard practice.
In fashion and talent, a model's name is the work; a portfolio address like firstname.model reads instantly as a professional presence rather than a profile buried inside a larger site. In design and making, the word carries a second, equally precise sense: the crafted, prototyped, or digital version that turns a concept into something people can see and evaluate. A studio, a CAD specialist, or a model-making workshop can put its craft directly in its address.
A model, whether a person on set or an object built to demonstrate an idea, exists to show. .model lets that purpose surface in the web address itself, helping talent get discovered and helping designers present prototypes, product visuals, and portfolios where clients already understand the terminology. Rather than competing with generic extensions, it signals membership in a recognizable field and helps a name become memorable and easy to place.
2. Explain how this purpose is sustainable over time.
Modeling and design endure because both are working disciplines with defined roles, clients, and deliverables, not passing trends. Fashion and commercial modeling operate through an established cycle: brands need faces and figures to present clothing, products, and campaigns, and that demand renews with every season, catalog, and launch. Casting, representation, and portfolio review are recurring professional functions, and each cycle produces a new generation of talent that must be presented and found. The role of the model is embedded in how the fashion, advertising, and retail industries function.
Before most products, buildings, or objects are made, they exist first as a model: a prototype, a scale build, a rendering, or a CAD file used to test proportion, fit, and intent. This step is a dependency in nearly every creative and manufacturing workflow. You cannot commit resources to production without first representing the idea, evaluating it, and refining it. As tools shift from clay and foamboard to parametric and three-dimensional software, the function stays constant; only the medium changes. The model remains the stage where an idea is judged before it becomes real.
Design schools teach modeling as a core competency. Agencies are structured around discovering and presenting models. Manufacturers, architects, and product teams build modeling into their standard process. Because the activity is taught, staffed, and budgeted for across institutions, its continuity does not depend on any single platform or technology remaining dominant.

Q121As per Section 3(d) of Specification 11 of the Base Registry Agreement, a registry operator of a “generic string” may not impose eligibility criteria for registering names in the TLD that limit registrations exclusively to a single person or entity and/or that person’s or entity’s “Affiliates” (as defined in Section 2.9(c) of the Registry Agreement). “Generic String” means a string consisting of a word or term that denominates or describes a general class of goods, services, groups, organizations or things, as opposed to distinguishing a specific brand of goods, services, groups, organizations or things from those of others. Confirm that the applied-for string is not a “generic string” in which the applying entity intends to limit registrations exclusively to a single person or entity.
