The Belleville Playground – Paris France
After a series of workshops with children, moms and pops, design firm BASE fine-tuned their incredible design to become an amazing transformative piece that pulls together hull of a boat, the wall of a castle and a treehouse so that kids can have any adventure they choose. The Belleville Playground welcomes climbers rain or shine, and its unique combination of nature and man-made space results in a safe oasis for all ages. See more photos at BASE
