About

The Architects of Wit is a multidisciplinary initiative spanning science, design, and humor, dedicated to exploring wit as a catalyst for better living. It encourages designers to create with intention, creativity, and courage—using humor and intelligence to foster connection. The initiative integrates research, publishing, education, and creative projects, inspiring a playful approach to architecture, design, and wellbeing. Leading a new vision, The Architects of Wit rethinks how humor, playfulness, and cognitive engagement manifest in design, aiming to make witty environments active contributors to well-being and joy.

Founded by Virginia Azevedo— restless mind, humor enthusiast, and interdisciplinary explorer whose experience draws from design, art, architecture, neuroscience and technology—The Architects of Wit was born from a desire to offer accessible tools to a happier life.

Inviting practitioners, educators, and curious citizens, The Architects of Wit seeks to empower others to recognise and harness the transformative potential of wit in the visual world.
