Playground Consulting
Good designs lead to a good outcomes. During the design phase it is best to employ Playinspect to assist with the design and planning of the playground when the plans are still in the draft stage. Whilst most architects and designers have a broad knowledge across many codes and standards it is hard to be an expert at all, while at the same time working hard to keep the client satisfied that you are meeting their overall vision. With a keen eye for playground specific details, we will be able to identify any potential clashes with equipment, landscaping and other design safety issues. A small investment up front will help avoid costly mistakes during the construction or manufacturing stages and will help projects move smoothly from the first pen stroke to the final handover.
