Welcome aboard the Charlotiinha ~ @charlotiinha ~ sailboat express to Brazilian Disco faves. Swashbuckle up with the dancing Dona Garça, a giant white heron bird that is often found in the middle of the pitiú, for a wild river ride full of funky tunes and saucy forró e samba moves. All hands on deck for a hip-shaking good time that’ll keep you grooving til the lobsters come home.

If you've ever had to sync your sleep cycle with your uniforms wash cycle for your second job, you’ll understand what’s going on in this rather stormy episode. After the sugar high comes the sugar crash and the founders face a major burnout that leaves them all in a collective struggle with energy levels low and tensions high.

Adopting Co-design as a new WordPlay process opened us up to a whole new way of working, removing barriers of collaborative design and workshops. Creating unexpected avenues of meeting new clients with strong bonds being formed through the process.

The Wordplay team cross paths with a couple of people who introduce them to new ways of working, a pivotal moment for Wordplay and the way the team approaches design solutions.

Matt and Gail Taylor, masters of the co-design process and founders of the MG Taylor Methodology share their origin story and how they formed their process back in 1979. After realising that the world was going to need a capability to solve complex problems in the not so distant future.
