TYPE: Public Space
STATUS: Unbuilt/Conceptual
Located near the intersection of two popular residential neighborhoods, TIP TOP PLAYGROUND fell into disrepair even as new housing and increased commercial activity sprung up on all sides. We provided design services for a local friends group whose mission is to raise awareness of the playground’s potential. We assisted the group in guiding collaborative programming meetings with the local community and city representatives; this process was instrumental in gaining councilperson support and funding for the renewal of the playground.
We lend our professional services and expertise to local projects that we support; additional work not pictured:
