Malovey Labs
We build software for the people who run cities, and the people who make them worth living in.
Malovey Labs is a small practice working at the intersection of urbanism, art, culture, and technology. We're here because we like cities, and because the strange, specific things that make one city unlike another are worth keeping. We stay small on purpose. The work is better when the people making it are the ones who care how it turns out.
Built by people who take culture as seriously as infrastructure.
