Designing the child-friendly places of tomorrow.
Playable Design brings art, play and interaction into everyday spaces, creating places that invite people to stop, explore, connect and return
Urban furniture or play equipment? Both.
Playable Design brings play into everyday environments — streets, parks, hotels, shopping centres, restaurants and transport hubs.
Through shapes, colours, movement and interaction, ordinary spaces become opportunities to explore, imagine, connect and play. The experience remains open-ended: everyone is free to invent their own use.
Encourage free, spontaneous and creative play.
Bring together different ages, abilities and ways of using a space.
Blend naturally into the landscape and existing infrastructure.
Distinctive
It creates a memorable experience rooted in the identity of the place.
Inclusive
It encourages interaction between children, adults, seniors and people with disabilities.
Versatile
One element can support play, movement, rest, observation and social connection.
Easy to integrate
Depending on its function and configuration, playable furniture can offer a lighter installation framework than a traditional playground.
Robust and scalable
Durable solutions can be adapted to the site, the available space and the project budget.
To bring this vision to life, we created Playable by B&A: our own collection of playful urban furniture. Robust, inclusive and designed for multiple uses, each piece sits between design object, urban furniture and play experience, transforming existing spaces without imposing a traditional playground.

Bord’eau Village — Turning the waterfront into a playful journey.
Along the Garonne riverfront in Bordeaux, eight public squares within a UNESCO-listed setting were transformed into a playful journey for all ages.
Designed to blend naturally into the existing landscape, each installation invites visitors to play, move, pause and connect. Together, they make Bord’eau Village a more engaging, inclusive and memorable destination.

Designing Child-Friendly Cities
A Child-Friendly City places children's needs at the heart of urban design, creating safe, inclusive and engaging environments where they can move freely, interact and play as part of everyday life.
Designing at a child's scale ultimately creates better places for everyone: more welcoming, more social, more active and more adaptable. Explore the principles, research and practical applications behind this approach in our dedicated white paper.
"When the cities are good for the children, they will be good for all"
-Francesco Tonucci
Understand how we design
The questions our clients and partners ask most — and what makes our approach different.
What is Playable?×
Playable is our collection of robust, inclusive playful urban furniture. It turns everyday public spaces into places to stop, explore, connect and return.
The approach comes from Bristol (UK) and is built on inclusivity, multi-use and harmony with the territory.
Who is Playable designed for?×
Playable is made for local authorities, architects and landscape architects, and anyone shaping public spaces and urban planning projects.
It welcomes children, parents and grandparents alike, so the space is used by the whole neighbourhood.
How is Playable different from a standard public playground?×
A standard playground is a fenced area for one age group. Playable pieces blend into the urban fabric and invite play for all ages, in several ways.
They are multi-use and can evolve over time, which makes the space more intergenerational and more inclusive.
Is Playable accessible and inclusive?×
Inclusivity is at the heart of the concept. Playable is designed so that people of different ages and abilities can use the same space together.
Accessibility requirements, including PMR access, are reviewed project by project.
Is Playable safe and durable for intensive public use?×
Yes. Playable is built to be robust, with materials and structures chosen for daily outdoor use and low maintenance. Safety follows EN 1176 where it applies.
We also design pieces that last and that people want to come back to, because lasting design is part of sustainability.
