Friendly Futures Social Club
Playing with friends - the next wellness frontier
The Friendly Futures Social Club was a boutique community experiment centered around playing with friends.
Over two years we hosted 50 'playdates for all ages' - testing new games, reviving old ones, mixing fitness and creative gathering - and came away with something invaluable: a deep understanding of how people actually connect through play, and the expertise to design and activate it anywhere.

A new game we tested
The Friendly Novel is a children’s book for adults made by adults acting like children. It’s the first work of our Friendly Art Series, where we invite our community to co-create with us! The purpose of the Art Series, and of The Friendly Novel, is to invite opportunities for new friendships, provide a space for non-professional creatives an opportunity to create, and support all of us as we reconnect with our superpower to play. This 6 month exercise is commemorated in a coffee table book, with the special treat of free pages scattered throughout for you to get creative and add your own friendly adventures!

Ceramic Canyon Radish course is a unique and exciting game set in the scenic canyon terrain! Blending elements of traditional golf with creative twists, this Radish course challenges players to navigate four holes using a mix of golf clubs, spongy balls, ping pong paddles, and cornhole sacks. This dynamic game requires skill, strategy, and a touch of finesse as teams compete to complete the course with the fewest strokes while also bumping into each other for many smiles and laughs.
