The Next Evolution of Play

Where Play and Fitness Come Together for Everyone

In the past, playground spaces were just for kids, while outdoor fitness spaces were often separate, isolated, or completely overlooked. Today, communities are changing, and the spaces that serve them need to change too.

CommonGround reimagines how fitness and play live together, creating shared destinations that invite movement, connection, and belonging at every age.

By integrating KOMPAN outdoor fitness and play, CommonGround creates inclusive environments that stay relevant over time—serving more people, more often, for more years of their lives.

Designed to Move Communities—Together

CommonGround is a design approach that blends outdoor fitness and play into one cohesive destination. Instead of separating spaces by age or activity, CommonGround invites entire communities to move, play, and connect side by side—naturally and at their own pace.

The result is a future‑ready environment that feels welcoming, inclusive, and active, no matter someone's age, ability, or fitness level.

CommonGround solutions are adaptable across Parks & Rec, Housing, Leisure, and more. Wherever people gather, CommonGround helps them move.

One Space. Every Generation.

CommonGround future-proofs your destination by creating spaces that remain relevant as community needs evolve over time. This approach allows a single investment to deliver ongoing benefits—reducing the need for future redesigns while making better use of available space and public resources.

  • Playgrounds spark imagination and help children grow physically, mentally, and socially.

  • Outdoor fitness offers accessible strength, cardio, and cross-training options that invite teens and adults to move at their own pace.

  • Stay Fit mobility equipment encourages balance and low-impact movement for seniors.

Together, these elements create inclusive destinations that deliver greater community impact and a stronger return on taxpayer investment—year after year.
