Experimentarium
Zingst / Germany / 2020
A seaport from the Hanseatic era
In the Zingst seaside spa resort, the "Hanseviertel" project on the grounds of the "Experimentarium" children's museum has created a harbour town on the beach. The enormous stranded ship is a two-master with a steering wheel, lookout, trough slide and many other play facilities. Behind the ship's hull the typical gables of the Hanseatic era rise in bright colours - the workshop rooms of the "Experimentarium". The whole area invites you to immerse yourself in role-playing, climbing and romping around and the unique playable ship is the attractive centre of this play world.

Wola Park
Warschau / Poland / 2021
An imaginatively designed indoor playground
The spacious "Wola Park" shopping center in the heart of the Polish metropolis of Warsaw has an imaginatively designed indoor playground for children. The centerpiece of the play world, whose equipment is made of high-quality spruce wood used especially for indoor use, is a large tree on which there are several tree houses. The houses, which are located on different levels, are connected to each other by net tunnels, ladders and climbing nets. The transparency of the net structures ensures the safety of children and parents alike. This allows the climbing children to maintain eye contact with their parents on the ground. From the upper levels, there are two large winding tunnel slides to get back down again. The large tree is equipped with plank roots, which are modeled on the roots of large trees that are exposed to strong winds.
With additional play elements such as rotating disks, a marble run or "remember-what", the little houses on the ground offer creative opportunities for experiencing the senses. These modules are also easily accessible for smaller children and wheelchair users.
An additional special feature is a small hill underneath the playhouses. A solid steel beam is mounted underneath it, which bridges the heavy loads between the high play structures.

Parc du Ray
Nice / Frankreich / 2019
Climb and discover to your heart's content
In the northern district of Nice, the “Parc du Ray” project created a spacious green area as a recreational and play paradise. The project approach of the Compagnie du Paysage was to discover the qualities of the previously derelict site in order to build a project in symbiosis with its surroundings. Richter Spielgeräte has created an exciting and spacious playground in this park against the beautiful backdrop of the Côte d'Azur. Several platforms of different heights connected by climbing nets, ropes, bridges and net tunnels and a large, winding tunnel slide invite you to marvel, climb and discover.

Maritime Cove Community Park
Melbourne / Australien / 2019
Richter Playground in Port Melbourne, Australia, combines high-quality play equipment with pieces of old seafaring gear to commemorate the town's maritime history
In the "Maritime Cove Community Park" in Port Melbourne, near Sandridge Beach, there is a spacious playground that combines our high-quality play equipment with parts of old seafaring equipment, thus integrating the maritime environment and the history of the place into the playground.For example, there are old canal markers, which are ideal for use as forts in the playground, steel buoys that can be climbed and used as seating, as well as a mast basket, harbor bollards, a rope ladder and replicas of shipping containers.
These components are complemented by the various play equipment. There is a large wooden fort with a long tunnel slide, challenging rope bridges and climbing ropes for older children, as well as unusual spinning tops, musical instruments and a spacious sand play area for toddlers.
On hot summer days, the two water play areas with pumps and various spray nozzles are a particular attraction.

Lusail Marina Promenade
Doha / Qatar / 2017
Imaginative play world on an idyllic beach promenade.
The secret of our success is a convincing mixture of a deep understanding of children's need to play and a respectful approach to the material wood.A well thought-out, age-appropriate playground design can make a significant contribution to improving children's lives. We are convinced that the need for playgrounds is merely the consequence of a complex, ever-expanding society, but cannot remedy the lack of free space for children.
Nevertheless, the playground should be seen as a way of compensating for the lack of general freedom of movement through play and as a necessary alternative to the mechanized life of children. If a playground is to fulfill these tasks, it and its equipment should have a high play value. The term play value is defined by the relationship between the playground or play equipment and the user and must be the focus of any planning.
A playground can already have a high play value through a differentiated terrain structure with hills and embankments, with different paving and different surfaces. A playground with a high play value can be recognized by the signs of wear and tear. The worn turf, scuffed ladder rungs, steps and equipment floors, polished handles or handrails can tell you about eager children's feet and hands and say: "Playing" is fun here!
In 2018, we opened a playground with precisely these standards in Qatar for the first time.
Lusail City is located north of Doha and is a new, world-leading city with exemplary facilities in all areas: Residential, Retail and Tourism.
Timberplay, Richter Spielgeräte GmbH's UK partner, worked with local contractor Nakheel to create a playground in one of the city's best recreational areas, the Lusail Marina Promenade.
Idyllically set amidst white sand and palm trees, the various pieces of Richter equipment offer fun and challenging activities for children of all ages.
The climbing structure, see-saw or sand snake offer energetic fun and challenging climbing and balancing. Shady shelters and seating for visitors have also been provided.

Nature Play at Royal Park
Melbourne / Australien / 2019
Unique due to its natural design in material, shape and color
What makes this playground unique is its natural design in terms of material, shape and color and its sensitive integration into the surrounding landscape, which was created in close collaboration between the City of Melbourne and Richter Spielgeräte.
There is a climbing area with various rope and balancing structures, nets and viewing platforms to discover, a water play area with various pumps, channels, damming and mud elements as well as various slope slides integrated into the existing terrain. An arched bridge has been specially designed for wheelchair users and families with baby carriages, and its attractive appearance alone makes it a special meeting point. The movable suspended floor provides a little thrill.

Parc de la Tete d`Or
Lyon / France / 2018
Atmospheric nature playground
For the atmospheric nature playground in the Parc de la Tête d'Or, the main focus was placed on the theme of "tribes". This can be clearly seen in the palisades of the climbing structure and the climbing forest. The various rope constructions, nets, ascents and transitions that connect the trunks with each other allow older children and teenagers in particular to climb and balance to their heart's content. In the horizontal triangular net, you can also sit down comfortably to chat and observe. Adults can also have fun on the Merk-Dir-Was. And the little ones are particularly attracted to the spinner, the seesaws and the platform with slide. Everyone can make cheerful noises together on the whistle seesaw. The concept of a playground for all generations has been a success here.

Maggie Daley Park
Chicago / USA / 2014
Exciting game world set against the impressive Chicago skyline.
In the heart of Chicago, the eight-hectare Maggie Daley Park is a spacious leisure facility set against the city's impressive skyline. Since its completion at the end of 2014, the new park, which attracts families with young and older children and teenagers alike, has had an unmistakable presence. Even the entrance to the park is extraordinary: a bridge designed by Frank Gehry leads from Millennium Park over to Maggie Daley Park. Various climbing rocks and a huge ice skating rink can be seen from afar.A particular crowd-puller is the approx. 13,000 m2 playground, which the company Richter Spielgeräte from Frasdorf helped to design and equip. The concept is bold, varied and surprising, both from an aesthetic and design point of view and from an educational perspective. In addition to various elements such as a play pyramid, lighthouse with slide, fishing boat with climbing nets and a harbour as well as nest cradles for the very little ones, the playground is particularly impressive with its two ten-metre-high square towers with a suspension bridge over 35 meters long and a variety of integrated play options. Here you can not only climb, balance and experience height, but young and old alike can also enjoy hiding, live out their childish imagination in role-playing games and experience a wide variety of physical phenomena on the rotating disks, the telescope or the rotating stone.
