SPIDERS

Ulyanovsk 2020

Set against the backdrop of modern high-rise development, this playground offers not just a natural play space, but one that is mysterious, unexplored, and unique. Here, a fragment of the insect world is recreated, where huge webs are woven and houses are built from twigs. A world that both allures and thrills…

"The Spiders" is a natural play hub designed to be engaging for children, teenagers, and adults alike. The space is divided into several distinct zones.
"Sandy Shore" is a zone for toddlers to develop fine motor skills, featuring a sand-pouring station and a massive sandbox that is easily accessible… by sliding right down a slide.

"Climbing Thickets" is a zone for children aged 3−7, where they can test their balance, strength, and agility on spinners and rope climbers. "Swaying Reeds" is a zone for children aged 3−12, featuring various types of swings and platforms for jumping.

The heart and focal point of the entire playground is the "Spiders" art object and play complex. It features two spider-nest towers, rope tunnels, and a massive slide, all of which can only be accessed via nets, rope courses, or 3D labyrinths. The entire playground is visible from the high towers, and in the evenings, they serve as a perfect gathering spot for teenagers. Different types of wood were used to build the towers, and their combination gives the art object a magical, fairy-tale allure.

The "Spiders" playground also features a spacious meadow where visitors can play active games or gather with a large group. The area is surrounded by green hills, which not only create additional opportunities for play but also make the space feel complete and truly natural.
