The Crystal Towers are situated in a bustling area of Stockholm amongst tall apartment buildings, shops and more. The playground is part of one of Stockholm's largest park projects, which will span 18,000 square metres.
A unique MONSTRUM playground - the towers are designed in beautiful colours and packed with fun, sensory play features to discover. Here, the focus is strongly on exploratory play and calmer, contemplative play. Kids can climb up high in some of the towers and venture across suspended steel mesh tunnels, where other towers are for sitting quietly and reflecting or enjoying the visual features.

INCLUSIVE PLAY
The Crystal Towers playground design focuses heavily on inclusive play. Our goal is to create opportunities for parallel play for all children.
Here, the multiple sand and sensory play features such as the activity boards within the towers are accessible for all regardless of mobility or cognitive abilities.
Likewise, the choice of flooring by the landscape architects enables wheelchair access to the play structures.
