About the playground artist-designed rubber surface

Rubberized Playground Surface

Always inspired by their surroundings, Muta Vision pulled inspiration for the Meyer Park design from the trees growing nearby. Particularly, the large tree adjacent to the playground, and the leaves that fall gently from its branches. Reflecting on the idea of “finding life anywhere you look”, the design also features many birds in flight as one might see up above the playground. In the center of a design weaves a giant abstract snake with shapes on its belly, creating a perfect pathway for imaginative play.
