A custom-designed playground bringing inclusive, imaginative and adventurous play.

Project Overview

  • Fortitude
  • Norway Reserve, Canterbury
  • Boroondara council
  • A playground designed to inspire courage, confidence, and resilience through movement and exploration.

Project overview

Norway Reserve in Canterbury has been transformed into an engaging community playground designed to provide more opportunities for play, connection and exploration. Created for children of varying ages and abilities, the upgrade combines adventurous play experiences with accessible features, ensuring the space can be enjoyed by a broad range of families within the local community.

At the heart of the playground is a custom-designed Fortitude play unit, complemented by a custom Native agility trail and a selection of inclusive play elements. Together, these features create a destination that encourages active play, social interaction and imaginative adventures.

Design and layout

The playground has been carefully arranged to provide a variety of play experiences within a connected and accessible layout. A custom Fortitude tower acts as the focal point of the space, featuring elevated play opportunities, climbing challenges and multiple slide experiences.

A subtle medieval-inspired theme influenced the design, reflected through the tower-style structures, timber detailing and adventurous play opportunities that encourage children to create their own stories and imaginative journeys. Complementing the main structure is a custom Native agility trail, providing additional climbing, balancing and movement-based challenges for older children.

Supporting play elements including the accessible spinner, triple swing and horse rocker are positioned throughout the playground to encourage social play and ensure a diverse range of activities for different ages and abilities.

Accessible pathways connect key play areas, helping create a welcoming and inclusive environment for the wider community.
