Play logs- CEIP Republica de Chile

Location of the primary school, in the southeast region of the city

01. Process

After an unprecedented snowstorm that hit Madrid at the start of 2021, hundreds, if not thousands of trees became logs, and the seed of an idea: to build a playground for a very empty space in a primmery school of Madrid.

The salvaged logs were the starting point of a collaborative design process, that would include the kids attending the school in the construction and deoration of the playground.

02. design & construction

The process of construction as constantly informed with what we were learning at every single moment, and decisions were negotiated and taken on the go. Some parts of the original designs were kept, and some others absolutely changed.
