Happiness Square is built with a spacious architectural mindset to inspire dreams. It has a community driven vision. People are welcomed and invited here to come, sit together, to think, to reflect, and to co-create a future filled with enormous possibilities. The Happiness Square redefines the idea of “public space.” It is amazingly neat and clean. It is evolving to be a platform for creativity.
The square is an open platform where people come and participate in progress processes. You can come together, form your team, design innovative initiatives and recreate your future the way you love.
What matters is the willingness to engage, to share, and to imagine new thought processes to find solutions to the challenges we face. Happiness Square helps you to think together in large scale. Announce an idea and welcome people to come together and become stakeholders in what you are proposing. This is the fantastic concept of Appreciative Inquiry and Imagine Chicago Model.

A Square Rooted in Collective Intelligence
Unlike conventional community centers, Happiness Square breaks away from formality and gatekeeping. It is open to all; a welcoming, vibrant ground where entrepreneurs or mentors meet students, visionaries meet action leaders, and farmers converse with futurists. It is a fertile zone of exchange, where collaboration replaces competition, and shared purpose becomes the driving force.
In every sense, this is a “Thinking Square.” With its open-air auditorium, reading café, convention hall, and youth activity zones, it provides not just physical amenities but spaces that encourage dialogue, creativity, and action. This is where the future begins; not with noise, but with meaningful conversations and quiet resolve.
A Living Model of Appreciative Inquiry
What sets Happiness Square apart is its alignment with the 5D Model of Appreciative Inquiry, a globally embraced method of social innovation rooted in strengths-based change. It offers a living example of how transformation can be both structured and spontaneous, personal and collective.
Social Constructionism rooted in the 5D Model can transform entire Kerala into a Super Growing Dynamic Economy. Let us look into details of the 5D Model.
Define: Happiness Square doesn’t merely exist to host events; it stands for transformation. Its purpose is clear: to serve as a catalyst for individuals and communities to rise, reimagine, and renew.
Discover: The space encourages discovery of creative voices long unheard, talents unrecognized, and possibilities not yet pursued. From discussions to dialogues to dreams and recitals, this is a place where hidden potential finds the light.
Dream: It is a nurturing ground for great dreams. Whether it’s a child dreaming of innovation, a senior dreaming of revival, or a collective dreaming of manifestation , this space gives room to imagine, and to believe.
Design: Empowered by inclusive infrastructure and freedom of thought, people are invited to co-create. Be it sustainability efforts, local enterprise models, or educational forums, the design here is collaborative and responsive.
Deliver: Ideas do not end in the moment they take flight. The environment supports real-world outcomes through workshops, exhibitions, mentorship, and actions that ripple outward, long after the gatherings disperse.
A Movement, Not a Monument
Happiness Square moves beyond hosting functions to functioning as a movement. It invites everyone to be both the speaker and the listener, the creator and the witness. It holds space for evolution and an ongoing practice. This is not the village square of yesterday, nor the conference room of today. It is the intersection of intention and inclusion, where anyone can come, sit, think, and act.
Come. Sit. Think. Act.
As Kerala charts its path into a future shaped by knowledge with creativity and innovation, Happiness Square stands as a microcosm of a new civic vision rooted in culture, reaching the world with courage. Whether you are a thinker, a doer, a dreamer, or a quiet observer of life’s unfolding, this square offers a place at the table. Bring your ideas, your questions, your energy. Because in places like Happiness Square, the future is not dictated; it is co-authored.
And it begins here. Under open skies beyond tall roof.
