Created by Playground Specialists, Piney Orchard Playground provides a distinct play experience for residents of all ages in Odenton, Maryland!
From the red top of SkyTowers® to the blue and purple Climbing Squares, the main structure of this playground creates an eye-catching rainbow that moves across the entire space. Yellow and green steel climbers can be found throughout the middle of the structure, challenging kids’ strength and coordination in a multitude of ways. Rainbow slides are also located throughout, with a towering tube slide for daring climbers as well as shorter slides for younger children.
The rainbow motif continues throughout the space in the form of a multi-colored PlayCubes® structure, a striking orange and green Unity® Teeter Tunnel®, and blue and purple Unity® Steppers. Pops of color can also be found at the PlayTown™ Garden Sensory Walls, where kids can engage with thought-provoking inserts, and at the swings, where kids can enjoy a unique vestibular experience together via Hoopla Swing.
At the end of a day here, kids may not find gold—but they’ll certainly leave with friendships and memories to be treasured for years to come.

Hunt Military Communities is a premier military housing developer dedicated to providing military families with first-class amenities. They manage all new neighborhood construction and property maintenance, so when it came to building a playground, they were looking for a partner who could provide a unique play space and proven, durable products.
This playground is located on the Joint Base Charleston Air Base next to the community center, so it needed to be a welcoming space where all the families on base could connect. Playworld designed an aeronautical-themed play space full of custom features. The main rocket-like play structure for kids ages 5-12 features graphic panels with flames and American flare, fins you can climb on, a 15-foot spiral slide, and a 13-foot tube slide. The tall tower sparks imaginative play as kids climb up and blast off on a sliding adventure.
The second custom play structure for ages 2-12 is an accessible design with graphic panels that resemble the C-17 Globemaster planes that fly out of the base. Other freestanding pieces like a LiveWire Zip Line and Teeter Tunnel give kids a thrilling ride and encourage cooperative play.
When the playground was completed, a ribbon cutting ceremony was held with the base commander and hundreds of residents. They couldn’t have been more excited for this new space and felt that it was a perfect representation of their community.

Like many communities in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area, South Jordan City is experiencing rapid growth. More housing developments means more kids, and more kids means a greater need for places to play! South Jordan and the Rushton Meadows community came to Playworld looking to turn a lot behind a large multi-housing development into an inclusive play space that would connect the community.
It’s hard to top the majesty of the mountain ranges in the distance, but this orange and majestic purple play space provides a striking contrast. Best of all, it’s full of activities for kids of all abilities. Double-wide ramps that can be accessed straight from the berm wall and sidewalk invite wheelchair users to roll right into the coolest play features. One such feature is AeroGlider™, a collaborative rocking motion experience kids (and even adults) love.
Another inclusive feature is the NEOS® 360 Accessible electronic playground system nestled under a shade; it appeals to the gamers in us all and provides a good physical workout. Other sensory touches and a variety of challenge levels help make this playground an inclusive hangout for the whole community.

Facing a competitive housing market, this single family residential community knew they needed to update their aging playground in order to set themselves apart. In addition to being somewhat drab and uninviting aesthetically, in comparison with the vibrant tropical landscape, their existing play space lacked the physical challenge to keep older kids engaged and entertained.
Playworld worked with community directors to design nature-themed play structures with tree post toppers and faux climbing rocks that blend in with the surroundings and add curb appeal. Specialized play areas for ages 2-5 and 5-12 provide age-appropriate physical challenges for all children. The resulting space now acts as an oasis for current residents and an eye-catching amenity for house hunters.

Located in Southwest Regina, Saskatchewan, Harbour Landing is a housing development that operates as a miniature town. Designed to meet the increasing demand for neighborhoods where people can live, work, and play in the same area, the community made the decision to invest bigtime in amenities: which includes 11 parks and 6 playgrounds! Why so many? For one, they enhance land use efficiency. Harbour Landing used integrated solutions to meet municipal and provincial drainage and open space requirements. But the reason for their large play investment goes beyond requirements. The developer truly realizes the value and ROI of play.
At the heart of Harbour Landing, one of those playgrounds has become a centerpiece of fun, educational play value. Featuring a dinosaur theme, this playground has faux eggs and skeletons that encourage exploration and open-ended play, as well as boulders and ropes to provide a physical challenge. The play space has helped to connect Harbour Landing to the larger surrounding community; organizations such as the Royal Saskatchewan Museum and the Saskatchewan Science Centre have collaborated to create community events in the prehistoric park for children and parents alike.
Harbour Landing is a shining example of how play value can drive property value—creating an attractive destination, a point of connection, and most importantly, a thriving community.

Crystal Cove Apartments was looking for a way to set their complex apart and decided they could do so by upgrading their outdoor recreation space. The existing tennis courts were showing their age and were underutilized by residents, so the community directors decided to redesign the area to attract residents both young and old. A multi-generational playground was just the answer.
Playworld worked with the directors to make sure there was something for everyone, from a custom designed, nature-themed play structure for kids to an area with outdoor fitness equipment for adults. By putting these spaces in a side-by-side layout, families would be able to utilize the space and spend outdoors time together. We packed the maxiumum amount of play value into their set footprint, and helped them add actual dollar-value to their property too. Not only was the playground a huge hit with current residents, but it proved to be an incredible sales tool that attracted new tenants too! At a check-in nearly three years later, play was still paying off at Crystal Cove.
