Feelings are Evidence

We're Feeldwork, an art-led design studio focusing on Felt Evidence for places, services and systems. Working with policy-makers and organisations, we gather the evidence spreadsheets can't hold, how people and places actually feel, and turn it into decisions that work.

Experiences like Feeldwork should be the future of policy and community engagement. This is the way to change the future. - Katie, Civic House

WHAT WE DO

Place-based engagement for change

Experience Engagement

Installations, provocations, sensory engagement that make an abstract future physically present.

Creative Workshops

Workshops that get people moving, feeling, thinking differently about the future. We never use post-it notes in our workshops

Creative Strategy

Plans that don't just die in a drawer, or only make sense based on data. Built around what a place and its people are genuinely need.

Radical Imagination

Bold, creative processes that connect climate realities to visionary, hopeful futures. We design ways to help people feel the future.

“Getting the space to understand my team and colleagues and what our skills really are rather than just who we are at work. We shouldn’t lose the fun in the hard-work! We need to create pockets of joy in our work and what we’re making!"
