Timeless principle

Change behavior through delight rather than instruction.

The idea

Test whether making better behavior more enjoyable can persuade people to choose it voluntarily.

Why it works

A staircase becomes a piano and a bottle bank becomes an arcade, turning ordinary choices into experiments anyone can understand. The before-and-after behavior supplies the proof. Volkswagen earns a larger point of view through small, observable acts.
