Polygonal Structures

ROX polygon climbing rock structures

Go for a modern architecture by styling your open space with irregular polygonal structures.

These are a popular stylistic choice when it comes to having a modern architecture in urban areas. The Polygonal sculptural design not only provides style and aesthetics, but it also provides the same play values as the whole of the ROX range.

ROX Case Study: Frankfurt, Germany

In Frankfurt, a climbing play facility was built on approx. 200m².

There are various sized rocks which are all linked by different play elements, such as a slide, nets and a suspension bridge. This results in a combination that is interesting for children as well as for adolescents.

There is an adjacent fitness course which further completes this recreational area, making it a great sport and fitness facility for young and old.
