The Experimental Playground
Daubeney School, Hackney, London |
The new design of the playground
has transformed an agressive and bleak environment into a sociable
and playful place. Following on from the success of the Experimental
Playground Project, our aim was to create a flexible
environment for children to play in that they could alter and re-shape
for themselves.
"This project has completely changed
the psychology of the playground" -
Teacher
“When the children are fighting
you think that’s all they know. But to see how creative they
were, they have all got something special about them. It’s
just to bring it out of them" - Lunchtime
