Stunningly Whimsical Playgrounds

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

XISUI Design Draws Inspiration from Natural Forms Such as Caves

— July 15, 2023 — Art & Design
XISUI Design has designed a stunningly whimsical playground above an underground parking lot in Guangzhou, China. The project is absolutely breathtaking with its cavernous sensibilities and emphasis on natural forms.

The Red Dunes Playtopia teases the curiosity of children with its undulating hills and arches that beckon youth to climb and explore. Stability and safety are ensured throughout the construction, of course. The whimsical playground also features a central white column with a ladder leading to a playhouse and metal slide. XISUI Design used vibrant colors, particularly red and blue tones, allowing the project to visually stand out.

XISUI Design's Red Dunes Playtopia offers a variety of play equipment for different age groups. The whimsical playground emphasizes activities that enhance "strength, balance, social interaction, and parent-child bonding."
