Space-Builders

Children needs an environment in which their minds and bodies can grow through playing with friends, family, and their imagination. Barn behöver en miljö där de kan utvecklas och leka med vänner, familj och där de kan använda sin fantasi. The possibities are endless when building with these soft triangle blocks. Use your imagination and you can build your own space. Maybe it will look like a spaceship! Or a snail! Take a look through the windows and you can see your friends and family. You get strong when you build with blocks! Med mjuka klossar kan du använda din fantasi och bygga något eget. Det kan bli ett hus, ett rymdskepp, en snigel eller vad du vill! Genom hålen kan du titta ut. Du blir stark av att lyfta klossar!

Snake

It is play equipment that has been designed to integrates with the natural surroundings in Trädgårdsföreningen, spreading from the entrance to the playground to start the fun when children and their caregivers step in the garden. The snake and leaf shape would be a play signal for children. The leaf-shape platforms are designed for rest and interaction with caregivers or friends, but also for children who wants to have their own confined space. Additionally, it is modular, so the structure can be changed when children get tired of the current one. Aiming at making it more inviting to wheelchair and involving them to the activities, I used grass blocks on the ground. In other cases, this equipment could be used in general playground in different structures.
