Urban Play
Playful geometry and bright colours define this dynamic, multi-level playground, which reimagines traditional play spaces by drawing on the rich heritage of Kwun Tong. Engaging visitors of all ages, the design reflects the district's history of salt pans and iconic red minibuses, incorporating vibrant graphics and playful structures like an inflatable minibus. Blending interactive features with open areas for events, the space fosters community connections, transforming a transit area into a lively community destination.
