Playducation

The built environment shapes everything about us – from our mental states to our physical well being – everything is connected to places we live in, even more so those which nurture us. The idea of play promoted in this module is that of “playducation” – to learn with play, more than just merely through it.

Creative Board

This is a modular design for local people to participate in construction and enjoyment. It has no complicated structure, but convenient cutting and splicing. The bottom is provided with a notch, which is convenient for changing the space attributes according to the user's purpose. We hope this is a space full of hope and creativity.

Reconstituted Play

At the core of our project is the idea of creating an adaptable play landscape. The modular design fits into varying spatial arrangements ranging from linear to central gathering. We seek to give children the ability to physically transform their own environment with our design kit simply facilitating this exchange.
