We are Designing a Friendlier World

as strategic partners to developers and community builders with our Neighborhood Games.

Play Is an Untapped Driver for Wellness

Three people at an outdoor gym: a young man is upside down doing a handstand, a shirtless man is sitting on a yellow beam, and a woman is standing by a yellow climbing structure.

The Harvard Study of Adult Development, the world’s longest scientific study of happiness, found that strong relationships are the single biggest predictor of long-term wellbeing.

Yet most wellness real estate still focuses on individuals.

We design play for social connection, creating places that are more joyful to spend time in and more supportive of what matters most to our wellbeing: our relationships.

Neighborhood Games

Unlocking the social potential of parks, amenities, and other neighborhood features, Neighborhood Games turns ordinary spaces into places people want to spend time together.

They are a strategic system for designing play, social connection, and collective wellness into communities.
