Final Renders



The incorporation of four reflective spinning elements within the playscape also allow for a greater manipulation of light, encouraging children to rotate these elements to reflect the various colours of the pyramid walls. The nooks provided by these elements may also act as individual seats, where one could get his or her friend to spin them around.

Inside, the children are also encouraged to lie down to watch the changing pattern of colours cast from exterior LED lights. These lights would also cast shadows from people moving around on the exterior, providing an interesting change of pattern on the surfaces.

Whilst seated on the outside, parents and children are also surrounded by the kaleidoscopic effect of light and colour, thrown onto the walls and ceilings of the semi-enclosed mezzanine space. This dynamic changing of colour will be affected by the movement and action of the children playing within the pyramid.

On the exterior, the first step of the pyramid provides seating for parents who may be supervising their children. The first step measures 500mm high, ensuring that it is a comfortable resting spot.
