Exploring the people, places and ideas shaping where we want to be.
Creators of Place is a cross-disciplinary community bringing together people shaping how we live, gather and experience the world.
Through gatherings, experiences and stories, we explore what makes places matter and create opportunities for different people and perspectives to come together.
It can be physical or cultural, permanent or temporary, designed or entirely unexpected.
A neighborhood. A brand. A community. A single evening that never repeats.
Place takes shape through people, experience, identity and culture.
A place is not a point on a map. It is a network of people, rituals and quiet coincidences.

Across real estate, hospitality, design, food, art, culture, brands, events and beyond, Creators of Place brings together people influencing the places and experiences around us.
Different disciplines. Different ways of seeing the world. A shared curiosity about what draws people in and what comes next.
Bringing together people who might not otherwise find themselves around the same table.
Discovering interesting places in new ways.
Ideas, perspectives and connections across disciplines.

People from across real estate, hospitality, architecture, design, food and investment gathered at The Baillie, a historic Seattle mansion in the midst of becoming something new.
One table. One evening. One question.
What makes a place magnetic?





The people. The brands. The spaces. The ideas.
We explore the people, brands and spaces shaping where people want to be, and the ideas behind them.
Gatherings, experiences, collaborations and conversations offer different ways into the same exploration.
More to come.

We're always interested in meeting people doing interesting things, discovering new places and exploring new ideas.
If you'd like to find yourself around a future table, collaborate, or share what you're working on, tell us a little about yourself.
