The Urban Conga is an international award-winning multidisciplinary design studio made up of a diverse group of creatives focused on sparking social activity and community interaction through open-ended play. They achieve this by working with communities to create inclusive, engaging, and site-specific opportunities that spark creativity, exploration, and free-choice learning for all demographics within the built environment. The studio utilizes play methodologies as a critical tool implemented not just in the work itself but in the participatory design process in which the work is created. Their work explores the idea of a “Playable City” as an ecosystem of multiscale playable opportunities intertwined within the existing urban fabric. Through this work they have collaborated with communities, organizations, businesses, municipalities, and institutions worldwide delivering permanent spatial interventions, temporary installations, workshops, lectures, development plans, and public policy recommendations.
