Shortly after the release of patch V6.15 Riot introduced a limited time (1st - 16th Aug.) special crafting that can be used to create summoner icons, special loading screen champion cards and skins related to the PROJECT theme.[1]
It follows the Hextech Crafting ideology but uses different kind of materials. Chests are called caches and don't need keys to be opened. Blueprints are like chests but instead of opening with a key they are fused with numerous cores to produce an item. The processing method uses the 
Hextech Portal to animate the crafting.
All the items can also be bought by 
RP from the shop.
