Toxteth Kindergarten did not want a plastic playground, but a space for imaginative play. The space was to offer different activity areas for groups and individuals, and most importantly promote natural products and native plants found in the local area.
Outhouse Design achieved this brilliantly, working with the parents group to plan for a playspace that would suit the needs and demands of the space as well as those of the children.
