Working alongside the team at Orchard Design, we combined custom net elements with standard products to create a series of rope-based challenges that encourage exploration, movement and adventure.
Every element within the playground was thoughtfully designed to foster connection and create opportunities for kids of all abilities to play together. For more active climbers, there are towers and rope-based challenges to test confidence and coordination, while the sunken amphitheatre, inspired by a yarning circle, provides a place to gather, rest and connect.
The nature-inspired cubbies and hideaways encourage imaginative play and exploration for younger children, while also creating relaxed spaces for older kids to unwind, socialise and simply hang out within the park.
