Pangaea is a collective based in The Hague (NL) initiated by Elisa Piazzi and Johannes Equizi. They address social and environmental issues by combining self-publishing, architecture, speculative and game design. Collectivity and co-creation are investigated both
as methodologies and research topics.
Pangaea believes that the challenges of today—whether political, environmental, or cultural—demand collective solutions.
The name itself reflects a vision and hope for people to come together on a metaphorical "Pangaea", united in exploring alternative ways of living and collaborating.
Making the most of not being experts, Pangaea freely
overlaps and experiments with methodologies and techniques
of various fields to create new forms of engagement.
Their playful approach aims to engage with the public
to co-create more inclusive and imaginative spaces.

Pangaea’s first project, Patatrac, is a publication that explores the complexities of collaboration through conversations with various collectives. It reflects their desire to understand what it truly means to work together in a world increasingly shaped by individualism. With this dialogical research Pangaea aims at creating a terrain to stimulate exchange of knowledge and experiences.
