The Open Fort uses Creativity & Play methodologies to create unique, bespoke solutions to client challenges. Creative ideation workshops, training and learning through games and play, public place activations and behaviour change community events – everything we do focuses on developing rich, deep engagement. CREATIVITY As creative facilitators we share and draw out learnings, methods and insights through creative processes. Through our own creative backgrounds, and tapping into our diverse network of experts, we have a wide range of tools at our disposal – ensuring we design original approaches and unique experiences. PLAY As game designers our processes and frameworks involve play, immersive design and bespoke game experiences. We create fun, interactive and immersive delivery methods that are grounded in research and key insights. Our goal is to co-create environments where everyone feels free and open and has the tools to express, share and learn. Our diverse team has worked with a broad spectrum of local and global clients. At a local level we've worked alongside all sorts of teams including Eke Panuku Auckland, Kāinga Ora, Auckland Council and Venture Taranaki and have facilitated over a hundred creative conversation events across New Zealand and Australia. Further afield we have had opportunities to explore how the creative arts can be used within business contexts; developing workshops and conference content for global clients such as Unilever, GSK, Burt's Bees and the London School of Economics.
