The Pearlfisher Gallery on the west side of London, England, has opened an adult ball pit. Even better news? The company behind the amazing creation claims that it could make you more productive at work.
Called JUMP IN!, the adult ball pit features 81,000 crisp-white balls, and is intended to create “a highly immersive experience promoting a sense of togetherness and joy.”
Right now Pearlfisher is allowing for free use of the ball pit and the company is donating one British pound ($1.50 U.S.) to charity Right to Play for every person who visits.
According to Jack Hart, Senior Creative Strategist at Pearlfisher London, the adult ball pit actually builds upon recent studies indicating that more “play” is needed in the adult world – particularly in workplaces.
“Many studies have shown that play can bring about extraordinary results for creative thinking, efficient working, the building of better connections and positive human relationships,” writes Hart.
He adds, “Many businesses claim to be ‘creative’ but they continue to operate with restricted process and conditioned thinking – true freedom of thought, expression and behavior never getting a chance to materialize. Integrating play into the working week is the key to the most effective productivity.”
Throw away the science and the adult ball pit just looks like a ton of fun
I wouldn’t mind having my next work meeting here.
Interested adults located in the area can email jumpin@pearlfisher.com to book a time in the pit. Sorry — no kids allowed.
