LEKKROKAR- ?Något att hänga upp leken på?
The research of today shows that natural environments are importantfor children's physical and mental development. It alsoshows that children often opt out of the traditional equipmentplaygrounds have to offer. By breaking the boundary betweenthe playground and park, is it possible to create a new spacethat will encourage rather than demand play? Through gatheringinformation and talking to landscape architects, designers,and children, I realized that today's parks already have environmentsand objects that could be used for playing. But whatthey need is something that makes the environment even moreinviting for children to play. I have therefore created a conceptfor playing that adapts to the parks and green spaces. Throughmy work and with my concept ?Gamehooks - a hook forcatching the game? I want to show and inspire new ways andopportunities for families to spend time in a natural environment.By applying this concept to Slottsskogen in GothenburgI created a proposal for how such a space could look. ?Thegamehook? in Slottsskogen is inspired by how children play innatural environments and create games based on different characteristicsof the areas.
