Play is more than just fun, it’s a fundamental right for every child. It fuels movement, strengthens connections, and enhances well-being, making everyday life more joyful for people of all ages. Yet, as cities grow and green spaces shrink, access to play is becoming increasingly limited. Thoughtful design can change that, transforming even the most overlooked spaces into places of activity and connection.
At Lappset, we partner with landscape architects to turn challenges into opportunities. Our innovative solutions maximise limited spaces, transforming courtyards, alleys, and underutilised areas into exciting play hubs. With vertical structures, modular systems, and natural materials, we create environments that invite movement, exploration, and social interaction.
Together, we can reclaim play and make cities more active, connected, and sustainable. How will you shape your community?

Maximizing Play in Small Spaces
Vertical Mazes: Play in Every Dimension
Limited space demands creativity. Our Vertical Mazes offer multi-level play, encouraging climbing and exploration. At Parmentier School in Paris, a compact schoolyard was transformed with a towering structure that makes the most of every square meter.
In Norway, a Vertical Maze is creating a dynamic meeting place for families in Kolbotn Square.

Play in Unexpected Places
Play isn’t just for parks; it can be anywhere. At Karingal Hub in Australia, a custom playground integrates into the shopping experience, turning errands into family fun.

Urban projects create new opportunities, too. The Caulfield to Dandenong Level Crossing Removal Project in Melbourne transformed 22.5 hectares under rail lines into eleven recreational hubs.

High Towers: Building Up, Not Out
When ground space is scarce, we can go vertical. High play towers create multi-level excitement. In Lõunakeskus, Estonia, a themed tower serves as both a landmark and a play space.
In Australia, we’re taking play to new heights with our nature-inspired Flora equipment. Sustainability is central to our mission; we use PEFC-certified Nordic pine that sequesters carbon and rely on 100% green electricity to reduce our impact in production.

Meanwhile, our modular Cubic and Finno playgrounds embrace Nordic simplicity, proving that great design is functional and inspiring.
