Childcare & Play Space Design

At Adaptive Landscape Design, we specialise in designing engaging, safe, and nature-inspired play spaces for childcare centres, schools, and community areas. Our approach blends creativity, sustainability, and safety, ensuring that children can explore, learn, and develop through play in thoughtfully designed outdoor environments.

We design playful landscapes that encourage imaginative play, social interaction, and motor skill development, all while meeting Australian safety standards. Every space is tailored to suit the needs of educators, parents, and—most importantly—children.
