Open Ended Spaces

‘Loose parts play’ is a well known term to describe play that is not prescribed, but enables children to use ‘stuff’ to make their own play world. This interesting blog extends that concept into ‘open ended spaces’, where the design is ambiguous, but full of play possibilities. I try to include such spaces when designing playful landscapes – click on the ‘playful landscapes’ category on the right for some examples.
