This unusual project involved the coordination of a volunteer group of professionals to design and build a handicap playground for the Foothills Gateway Rehabilitation Center.  Since the project was located within a courtyard of an existing building it was necessary to respect existing grades and circulation patterns.  Understanding the needs of the handicapped and their teachers was also an integral part of the design process.  Design services included grading, layout and planting design as well as conceptual design for the play structure and canopies.
