About Flow

Founded and run by Jessica Taylor and Richard Smith, FLOW is a family business in Aotearoa that designs and produces both catalogue and bespoke features for skateparks and integrated wheeled-play spaces. By focusing on user experience, we strive to enhance accessibility to skateboard and wheeled-play-friendly environments.

Richard brings a wealth of industry knowledge, with over 20 years of experience as one of Aotearoa’s prominent Skatepark Architects, having designed some of the most iconic skateparks and integrated wheeled-play spaces in the country. Through FLOW, we aim to foster equity in this field by increasing access to inclusive, purpose-built environments for diverse wheeled-play users.

We believe wheeled-play architecture should encourage creativity and versatility, so our products are designed to be highly customisable, allowing for a range of applications. By working alongside local manufacturers, we ensure that our designs are adaptable to the unique requirements of each space.

At FLOW, sustainability is a core value. We proudly partner with local suppliers and manufacturers throughout every stage of production, creating products that meet a high standard of quality while accounting for environmental preservation.

Communities centred around various forms of wheeled play thrive when they have access to thoughtfully designed locations. Whether you’re looking to develop a skatepark, wheeled-play environment, integrated space or a combination of these, FLOW is here to help you envision and bring these spaces to life.
