Project: Preschool
Location: West Sussex, UK
Lead designers: Atelier Aitken
This preschool outdoor play court is envisioned as a beautifully integrated, world-class learning landscape—an environment where imagination, exploration, and wellbeing come together in a seamless dialogue between indoors and outdoors.
At its heart, the design celebrates the diversity of childhood experience. A calming sensory zone offers a tranquil retreat, thoughtfully composed with textures, planting, and gentle stimuli to support relaxation, emotional regulation, and inclusive play— particularly for children with additional needs. In contrast, the adventure forest and green zone immerse children in a naturalistic setting, encouraging curiosity, risk-taking, and discovery through climbing, exploring, and interacting with living elements.
