Max Roach Play Park

Max Roach play park and building improvements

Client London Borough of Lambeth

Budget £1m

Max Roach is a neighborhood park in a conservation area .  Play is introduced throughout the park. It appears as a fragment of a ruined fragment of an invented house of a hill, as a felled tree from the site propped on ‘feet’, as a cycle track and as the enhancement of the existing adventure playground and its building. The building is given a window to project the films made within and structures  extend the activities of the interior outside such as  the  cinema screen you can climb n. The fence that  wraps  football pitch expands and wraps around  bleacher seating,  hammocks are strung between trees and a pile of logs conceals a container of equiptment.
