This ambitious project pushed our creative boundaries, prompting us to conduct extensive research focused on children with disabilities to truly grasp their unique needs and challenges in playground environments.

The revolutionary structure features three distinct swing options: a classic single swing, a social double swing, and a groundbreaking wheelchair-accessible model. We carefully selected a harmonious blend of warm, inviting wood and durable metal – combining natural aesthetic appeal with structural integrity.

The wheelchair swing represents a breakthrough in inclusive design, featuring an ingenious autonomous boarding system. Users can independently access the swing through a specially designed door that smoothly unfolds via an easy-to-use hand crank mechanism.

The ‘Inclusive Swing’ initiative represents more than just play equipment – it’s about restoring a fundamental childhood experience. Swinging offers not just laughter and fun, but valuable therapeutic and developmental benefits that every child deserves to enjoy.

Driven by our conviction that exceptional design must embrace and celebrate all users unconditionally, this project sets a new standard for universal, future-focused playground solutions that leave no child behind.”
