Middelfart Habour

A simple playground that makes a statement

When designing a new playground, sometimes less is more. A simple playground design can often be the most eye-catching and memorable. In South Funen, along the harbour in Middelfart, you will find one of LEDONs most popular pirate ships, Nathalie. The mid-sized pirate ship is packed with engaging design features and opportunities for imaginative play.

In the bow children can use the telescope to look out over the water, which sparks a sense of adventure and imaginative role play. The attention to the small details is really what makes this pirate ship stand out from the crowd. Features like the compass and anchor act as prompts that inspire new games, role play and storytelling at the playground.

The wobbly plank on the side of the ship is also an innovative design feature, that is fun, while still challenging children’s balance and coordination in an engaging way. The Nathalie ship also features a slide, which is always a popular activity that immediately draws children in.

The surrounding frame around the playground helps to highlight that this is a dedicated area to have fun and to play, while functioning as a place for children and adults to sit and gather. Whether to observe the playground or to take a break from playing. This simple and impressive playground is a perfect place for role-playing, adventure and fun!
