PLAYS Studio
Where research, play and design come together.
The Studio is the creative and innovation space for translating meaningful-play principles into ideas, prototypes and experiences.
Imagine • Design • Experiment
Better experiences begin with better questions.
PLAYS Studio can work with organisations, designers, educators and researchers to explore what meaningful digital play can look like in practice. The focus is on starting with children's needs and considering how design can support agency, creativity, connection, inclusion and learning.
