About



We take play seriously. In a world obsessed with optimisation, we believe in sideways thinking, wild metaphors and solutions that feel obvious only in hindsight.

Puerile is a venture studio working at the intersection of architecture, urban systems and civic design — developing projects and tools that respond to the evolving needs of communities.

Part research lab, part design practice and part incubator, the studio partners with organisations, local governments and citizen practitioners to prototype new models for civic infrastructure. Each project is a testbed for systems-level change, grounded in place and designed for scalability.

Core areas of work include spatial design, urban research and product development, with a focus on civic technology, participatory processes and the public realm.

Beneath it all is a belief that the built environment can be both a question and a response — a feedback loop between people, place and possibility.
