As a designer of outdoor play environments for more than 15 years we encourage the development of natural play spaces to our municpal, school and pre-school clients (one example being the nature play area which opened this summer at Millstone Creek Park in Westerville). I believe our role as designers of public and private outdoor environments affords us the unique opportunity to promote not only an active lifestyle but also an interaction with nature in structured and unstructured settings. Properly designed play environments should foster creative and self directed play in addition to those traditional activities available on play equipment. Through our park and play area design work we strive to develop spaces that inspire our youth and to nurture a love of the outdoors that will impact generations to come.
