How we bring create a space for all ages

We designed Tampines GreenGlade to cater to a wide range of users from toddlers to teens to adults by combining adventurous play structures, sensory experiences, and a fitness trail. Our goal was to inspire movement, imagination, and shared moments in a natural, inviting setting.

A thrilling adventure for young climbers!

An overview of the area

At the center of the playground is the Acorn Tower, a spectacular vertical play feature that challenges children to scale multiple climbing obstacles at their own pace. As they make their way to the top, their courage and coordination grow. The exhilarating slide down becomes a reward for their effort and a motivation to try again, making the experience as confidence-building as it is fun.

Beyond climbing and sliding, the Kanopé play structure invites children into a world inspired by forest canopies. Its organic shapes and pathways encourage imaginative exploration and active play. Complementing the physical structures are rabbit springers and interactive play panels that provide delightful moments of creative and social engagement. The musical flower panels offer auditory play, fostering teamwork, sensory development, and communication through shared sounds.

“From forest towers to musical flowers, every corner of GreenGlade brings play and nature together in harmony!”
