Hi I’m Jo Yang, a high school educator and on Ready to Redo we’re dissecting the topic of educational re-doing. Here we question the traditional education system, is it REALLY doing what’s best for our students and their future? Stay tuned for interviews with other educators, organisations defying the educational norm and everyone in between - you’ll be surprised just how many are part of this quest for a redo.
61. The Architectural Design of Children's Play w/Louise Pearson
Who designs childrens’ play spaces, and how do they design… play?
Today we’re joined by Louise Pearson, a studio director at ASPECT studios who was a part of the architectural design for the Ian Potter Children’s Wild Play Garden in Centennial Park (Sydney).
The play garden planning started back in 2014, and officially opened in 2017, and it is a MUST GO if you’re in the area. We talk all about the play garden’s history, purpose and intentions, so let’s jump into it!
