Unique Play Designs - Increase play duration
Case study on play duration
Some playgrounds appear to be more visited and interesting than others, therefore, KOMPAN Play institute set out to research what makes a playground more visited and interesting from a user perspective at Frimley Lodge Park, a refurbished playground in the UK. The case study included interviews with 262 adults and 95 children.
The study showed that more than half of the playground’s regular visitors had increased their visits to the park after the refurbishment.
