We were delighted to be funded by Arts Council NI and National Lottery on the Creative Seed Programme to bring the UnSmart Home to the next level.

Working with Queen’s University Belfast and their Computer Science Masters Students - we created 5 new puzzles for the UnSmart Home and tested them in the Queen’s Computer Science Building in August 2023.

From an updated Wonky Washing Machine to a Mind Boggling Bookshelf, it was amazing to see what the students came up with. And we are so grateful that 27 young people came down to test the puzzle room (and were much faster than the University lecturers!)

We are still working away and will be brining the updated version to Lisburn in the near future, with the dream of taking it to schools feeling much more in reach.
