ALPHA™ TOWER PREPARES KIDS FOR THE FUTURE
01 Mar 2018
The Alpha™ Tower range from Playscape Creations provides a unique and innovative take on playground equipment, allowing children to devise their own style of play while developing skills for the future.
Play is about exploration. Play is about challenge – and a way to let off some steam. But play is also so much more than that. It is a trial run of adulthood, a way for kids to discover and practice all the skills they’ll need in the future, such as leadership, persistence, empathy and courage. Play shapes kids for tomorrow.
The 2018 launch of Playscape Creations' Alpha™ Tower range brings height and maximum play value to the playground while maintaining an economical footprint. The distinctive geometric design and unique aesthetic engages and encourages the children to explore and challenge themselves – and each other – through play.
Multiple innovative climbing opportunities create an open invitation for the kids to scale the outside of the structure, up to the 1.2m and 2.4 decks. The decks can also be reached by climbing inside, stepping into the fully enclosed 3.65m deck that provides an amazing view and allows for the kids to spend a moment reflecting on their achievement. The compact interior will have them climbing and crawling to explore the different activities along the way, reaching further with each visit, conquering their goals and providing a sense of progress.
Exhilaration comes in the form of the Tunnel Slide, offering a thrilling ride 3.65m down as a reward for reaching the top. The Double Swoosh Slide® – Landscape Structures’ steepest slide – lets kids slide two at a time, racing down from the 2.4m deck. This higher Double Swoosh Slide is part of the new Elev8 range launched by Landscape Structures last year, further promoting height challenge on the playground.
Encouraging imaginative play, the Alpha and Alpha Link Towers give children a variety of unique ways to look out and socialise, with perforated and slotted panels also providing visibility from the outside. Allowing children to find their own way, their "just right fit" in play is promoted through non-prescribed opportunities throughout the towers, fostering interaction and collaboration between users, making new friends, and mastering new skills.
The high-quality materials, synonymous with the Landscape Structures' brand, and the innovative aesthetics of the Hot Dip Galvanized steel frame, offer enhanced corrosion resistance for coastal environments and are ideal for this modern design.
Extensive colour palettes are also available for these towers from Landscape Structures' rich proprietary colour range, allowing them to stand out or blend in with the surrounding landscape according to the designer’s preference.
The Alpha Towers range goes above and beyond the fun of a traditional playground; these standard range towers let children climb to their highest potential, shaping them for their tomorrow! And for a better tomorrow, we play today.
