A repair and design movement.
What began in Istanbul as a grassroots community has grown into an international lab with activations in Berlin, San Francisco, and beyond. With our strong community and global partners, we put authentic interaction and positive change at the center of everything we do — from participatory public installations to large-scale workshops.
Our aim is simple: to transform urban environments through playful interactions and experiences, while supporting partners who want to make the world a better place.
We develop design-driven, community-based sustainability projects that help organizations build real-life connections with communities and turn bold ideas into lasting impact. Acting as both an experience and social innovation studio, we craft participatory interventions where playfulness, sustainability, and diversity come together to reimagine urban life.
