Seek Fanatic

 

Design a universally accessible playground that caters to children with all types of disabilities. The challenge is to create not just a play area but a vibrant space that ensures safety, inclusivity, and endless fun for children with diverse needs.

 

The critical issue at the heart of this competition is the urgent need to provide playgrounds that welcome all children, regardless of their physical, sensory, or cognitive abilities. Most existing playgrounds lack universal accessibility, inadvertently excluding children with disabilities from the joy of play and vital social interactions. This competition aims to address this gap by fostering the creation of inclusive play spaces that allow every child to experience the delight of play while promoting social inclusion, community, and equality.

 

The objective of this architectural competition is to inspire participants to design playgrounds that are universally accessible and cater to children with various disabilities. Your challenge is to transcend conventional playground designs and envision an inclusive environment where every child can play together safely and joyfully. The ultimate goal is to create a playground that is a beacon of inclusivity, where barriers are eliminated, and every child can experience the sheer joy of play and the power of social connection.

 

The competition is ‘OPEN’ – for students, offices and professionals (you are eligible to participate as a team of a combination of students and professionals, or as an individual)
