Shopping centers are often quite boring for children given that they need to behave and not make too much noise, so the 'Red Planet' by 100Architects is a playground that is intended to help change this. Suitable for kids and adults of various ages, the setup allows kids to physically interact with their surroundings rather than feel as though heading to the mall is a chore that has to be done every so often with their parents.
The 'Red Planet' by 100Architects playground features a racing track, benches and a variety of games that make it fun for kids to use with other children or with their parents. This highlights how businesses are shifting perceptions of what the shopping experience can be like to encourage consumers to spend more time in the space.
