LILY FLOATING PLAYGROUND
21 May 2019
Take a leisurely waterside stroll or partake in an adventure on the water with LILY, a large floating playground that offers a range of activities aimed at a wide audience.
LILY offers a new and playful sensorial experience on the central lake of the Futuroscope, designed by WAO (Wild Architectural Objects), in France. The structure is made up of five giant buoys moored to a large deck, which offers a relaxing walk and invites visitors to contemplate the surrounding environment. 
The buoys host small trampolines, offering fun spots for people to jump or lie back and relax. Visitors can leisurely stroll along the mesh bridges to reach the trampolines, moving from place to place to keep the fun going. 
The vibrant stricture reacts to spontaneous movements and resonates with the joyful spirit of the people. The handrail solidifies the design and seems to come to life with the vibrant energy taking place. 
The magic of the water, the unpredictability of the movements and the happiness of moving creates strong moments where weightlessness, euphoria and wonder mix. 
LILY consists of 1000m² of canvas, 410m² of braided mesh and 450m3 of air.
