"...Norman has developed an installation of recyclable material that is, or may be, a workplace, playground facility, meeting place and shelter, that is covered with plants, and thus targets various age groups and interests. The facility provides even a DIY-eco-‘rocket oven’ that uses very little fuel and creates great heat to cook on.."
I'm excited about this playscape because of how Nils organized its space...those 'boxes' that are both elevated (we love being off the ground!) and short-ceilinged (we love having our head close to the roof!). As soon as I saw this I remembered being in similar found spaces as a child, but I rarely see them on the playground. The ramp and tunnels and the fact that the structure itself forms a 'path' is bonus.
But I'm not at all sure about the rocket oven.
