Play is not a break from the work, but the place where the real learning starts? Before we master anything, we experiment. We follow curiosity. We test the edges of what we know. In a world obsessed with productivity, play gives us something more useful than output: a new way to see.

Where does your mind go when it has room to play?

Do people act on information, or on how it's framed?

Tell someone their neighborhood is dangerous and they lock the door. Tell them it's under-invested and they show up to the meeting. Same conditions. Opposite behavior. So what actually moved them? Not the facts. The frame. Which raises the question we start every project with: what would change if you stopped asking what's wrong here and started asking what's being missed here?

We got the pleasure to partner with the wonderful team at The Oakland Fund as they step into a new chapter.

The Oakland Fund exists to leverage private capitol to push innovation, creating public good and ultimately changing lives. Earlier this year they were able to secure a new $12M building to keep teachers in the city they teach in.

The work means a lot to us when it shows up like this so we’re extremely proud to have worked with the organization behind the mission.

Congratulations and thank you to the entire Oakland Fund team!

What truth is your team avoiding because it feels easier to stay polite?

The thing everyone feels usually has something to teach. Name it with care. Let it sharpen the room. Then move.

Leaning into our own ignorance is the fun part about life, because every "I don't know" gives curiosity a chance to take over.

What’s something you used to be certain about?

What happens when the frontier reaches us before we are ready for it?

The Frontier shapes how we show up. It keeps us in growth, always redrawing the map as the terrain changes. It makes curiosity a discipline. It refuses performed certainty. It grounds our work in real human behavior.

The Frontier asks us to build a ship that can stay at the edge, take in real-time signal, and keep making new maps, even when the terrain shifts under our feet.

It asks the same of our partners: be honest about what is working and what is not. Design for the people you serve. Trade perfect plans for clear next steps.

The compass isn't for finding the frontier. The compass is for keeping your bearings while the frontier finds you.

So when the frontier finds you, will you keep building for what was, or start building for what is coming?

For the City of Emeryville, Fiveten Agency developed a layered economic development and commerce campaign rooted in a simple but powerful idea: focus on the feeling.

Instead of treating Emeryville like another city to promote, we built the work around what makes the place move, ts creative charge, entrepreneurial energy, and unexpected mix of industry, art, culture, and commerce. The campaign was designed to make Emeryville feel less like a destination on a map and more like a living intersection: where innovation has texture, creativity has an edge, and local business becomes part of the city’s larger story.

The 5 Whys is basically what happens when you refuse to let the first answer sit in the good chair. Because the first answer is usually wearing a nice outfit and lying. A campaign did not miss because “the audience didn’t get it.” The audience got exactly what was given. So we ask why. Then we ask why again. Then we keep going until the polite little surface problem turns into the real thing: the strategy was fuzzy, the story was built around the institution instead of the people, the process skipped the part where someone actually listens, or the solution was designed for a meeting and not for the world it was supposed to live in.

That is where Fiveten does the work, down at the root, where the truth is messier, more useful, and usually more human. Good strategy finds the thing underneath the thing, names it clearly, and builds from there.

We are what we read.

At Fiveten Agency, our office is filled with books, serious books, fun books, strange books, beautiful books, and books that make us think differently. We read about culture, creativity, history, design, business, strategy, and people because every page gives us another way to understand the world around us. Those ideas show up in the work we do, from the stories we help tell to the campaigns we shape and the communities we aim to serve. Reading keeps us curious, thoughtful, and connected, which helps us create work that feels human, intentional, and rooted in real understanding.

What does it mean to be a women's college preparing leaders for 2050?

Scripps College came to us with a question about connecting with Black and Brown students. When we arrived on campus, we discovered they were asking something bigger: What does women's leadership education look like for Gen Alpha? How do you prepare students for an uncertain future? How do you speak to who you're becoming while honoring who you've been?

Through discovery workshops and strategic sessions, we listened for the tensions they were navigating. We watched for the gap between what they wanted to communicate and what students actually needed to hear. We created frameworks that turned contradictions into strengths, developed language that resolved false choices, and built a manifesto that positioned them not as defenders of tradition but as architects of what's next.

The work included developing their core value statement, creating testable campaign concepts mapped to real implementation channels, and building materials to align their board and stakeholders around a shared vision. We gave them pathways to test new messaging across campus touchpoints while maintaining what makes Scripps unmistakably Scripps.
