Evolving Urban Playgrounds: 5 Design Strategies and 31 Projects Around the Globe

Urban playgrounds are evolving from simple swing sets and slides into dynamic, multi-faceted urban landscapes. These new designs are more than just places to play; they are thoughtfully integrated spaces that address urban challenges, promote community, and inspire creativity.
