Playground (hopefully!) ABCs by Roeland Otten




I previously posted some vintage ABC playground climbers, and posited how nice it would be to see the whole alphabet in playground equipment...Rotterdam designer Roeland Otten has fulfilled my wish with his beautiful set of typographic chairs!

He's looking for a manufacturer that can make these suitable for the outdoor environment, so if you can help get in touch.  These would be amazing scaled up from chair size to climber size...imagine spelling the name of your park or school or company!   I love the idea of children being able to interact with the elements of language in such a physical way.
