Customer case
Lincoln Park, Boston, USA
Boston, Massachusetts wanted to make sure that all residents lived a maximum of 10-minutes' walk away from their nearest recreational area. This goal has been achieved with the installation of Lincoln Park. Located in Somerville, this exciting and colourful playground offers locals respite from the surrounding urbanised environment. The densely populated area has limited space for outside activities, so creative solutions were needed to create a space where residents of all age groups could come together as a community.
Customer case
Active City Centre in Grindsted, Denmark
The municipality of Billund, Denmark wanted to breathe new life into the city centre by installing an attractive outdoor play area. The ambition was to increase footfall and extend the length of visitors' trips to the city, with hopes to bring in more customers for local businesses.
Customer case
Ramsden Park, Toronto, Canada
The landscape architect behind the playground in Ramsden Park, Toronto, had a vision: to create something new and exciting whist incorporating the city’s heritage. The new playground uses yellow colours and themes from Toronto’s history of brick, and has maintained several of the timeless play items from their old KOMPAN playground, like the iconic Crazy Hen. After years of playful enjoyment in its former location, the first of the revolutionary springers is still in great shape and has become part of the new playground.
