Throughout the issue, we explore pathways to play, including expert advice on rediscovering your own play type as a busy adult and, failing that, five games devised and demonstrated by artist Carsten Höller for those who don't know where to begin. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a study of architects, psychologist Donald MacKinnon found that those considered most creative by their peers were often those who knew how to play; this is certainly true of John Outram, whose over-the-top masterpiece, Sphinx Hill, we visit on page 70. Painters play with color and line--a type of immersive flow state our fashion editorial explores on page 60. And musicians improvise and experiment, a process familiar to the band Balming Tiger (interviewed on page 78), whose alternative approach to K-pop subverts the genre's perfectly synchronized image. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSince 2011, \u003ci\u003eKinfolk\u003c\/i\u003e has set the standard for independent publishing in art, design, aesthetics, architecture, homes and interiors.
