About

The manifesto was written by a collection of play designers from Design Sch ool Kolding in Denmark. We felt the need to put into words what it is we talk about when we talk about designing for play.

We highly encourage all designers who are interested in leveraging play in their disciplines to apply for our 2 year master’s degree in Design For Play.
