anxious generation
The pervasive use of screens led to what we now know as the "Anxious Generation." While technology connects us in many ways, it can also be incredibly isolating. For children, this isolation leads to fewer opportunities to develop real-world social skills, resilience, and creativity.
One powerful antidote?
✨️Purposeful shared play spaces✨️ and it's why we love designing them. Whether in condo buildings or community centers, these spaces become a sanctuary for children to reclaim independence and connection.
When children play together, they encounter challenges like who gets the ball first, how to divide roles in a game, or what happens when someone disagrees. These moments of conflict resolution and compromise are critical for building emotional strength and adaptability, life skills that help reduce anxiety.
By providing children with enriching play spaces that prioritize connection and creativity, we’re not just keeping them off screens. We're teaching them to engage with life, collaborate, dream, and thrive.
