Transforming The Form
Cube Playground
This project focused on transforming a basic geometric cube into a dynamic and engaging playground space for teens and adults. The design explored contemporary techniques such as intersection, deconstruction, and addition to create a playful and interactive environment.
​
Key considerations included user experience, spatial synthesis, human scale, and circulation, ensuring the design catered to both activity and connection. Deliverables featured physical models, orthographic drawings, and a presentation detailing the concept, process, and final outcome, showcasing creativity and spatial innovation. I also included 3D models made using SketchUp to communicate my design.

I created a 3D model using SketchUp to experiment with design ideas. I felt that my initial design idea incorporated too many elements for the space I was working with. To address this, I simplified the design, reducing it to a single internal level, which allowed for increased headroom to accommodate climbing activities. Additionally, removing the locker area freed up valuable floor space, enabling the inclusion of more activities.
