Sports and games on the waterside

Young people and adults work out on exercise machines or play a game of basketball while children swing, somersault or climb. And all in one place at a unique waterfront location in the heart of Groningen.

Unity
The sports area and playground was conceived and developed in partnership with the design department of the city of Groningen. The brief was to: create a sports area and playground and create unity. The result: all IJslander equipment – BarForz S, basketball pole, horizontal bars and bird’s nest swing – all have the same RAL colour as the lines on the surface. These same lines connect all sports and play equipment together. Project & consultancy bureau Donkergroen were responsible for the rubber subsurface in which the lines, hopscotch path and running track were marked out.

Next to that independent research proofs that BarForz has an added value to the neighbourhood! Click here for more information.
