®GOOD DESIGN 2022

Winner Of The Prestigious GOOD DESIGN 2022 Award

We are proud to share that we won an award in the GOOD DESIGN 2022® international design competition.

The “Balloons” integrated play system, planned and designed by the head of our design department, Yaniv Ziegler, was selected as a winner of the prestigious GOOD DESIGN 2022® design award in the Children’s Products category.

This award has been given since 1950 for the most innovative and advanced industrial designs and products in the world.

Over the years, it has been given to leading companies from over 50 countries, and we at Psagot Playgrounds are honored to join this prestigious list.

This is our second win in international design competitions, after winning the Red Dot Design Award in 2019 with our “Bubbles” structure.

The “Balloons” structure consists of a system of play towers that aims to take all types of children on imaginative journeys. Hot air balloons have an amazing combination of color, shape and imagination, so they are ideal candidates for play sets that stimulate children’s imaginations.

The structure is designed to create a different, empowering new experience for all people- a multi-sensory experience of sound, color, challenge and imagination. The challenge was to combine a wide variety of game uses to enable everyone to partake and enjoy- so that no one feels excluded or alienated; to create a new and improved user-experience for children.

The project stemmed from the desire to make a playground truly accessible, so that disabled children, especially those in wheelchairs, could participate with their friends.

The base of the play system includes wheelchair-accessible bridges. Via these bridges, a wheelchair-bound person can access higher floors, engage with additional playground elements, and play actively with others.

Additionally, the play system also offers a variety of experiential activities for users of all ages and abilities. There are challenging rope nets and high slides for older children, and sensory play panels and low slides for younger children. Everyone will experience colorful fun, harmonious sounds from musical panels and hot air balloons that stimulate the imagination.
