The "place" is the ephemeral encounter. A cashier, someone you work up the incentive to say "hi" to in places where it might not normally be done, that sort of thing.
"Design" has nothing to do with it. It's all about making an effort in a moment, and loving the fuck out of how well it went in the aftermath.
Do it every possible opportunity, no matter how silly it might seem in the moment. My experience is it goes beyond expectations/anticipation most of the time.
And the times it doesn't amount to learning experiences to perfect it along the way.
SAY "HI!" FOR GODSSAKES!!! ;-)
Nothing like a good small talk with a friendly cashier or passerby!
