Just in time to beat the heat of summer, The Playground<\/a> at the National Building Museum<\/a> is open for all ages to experience creative play. The Museum\u2019s iconic Great Hall has been transformed into an awe-inspiring 14,000-square-foot imaginative landscape. Designed for exploration, creativity, and intergenerational play, it promotes climbing, building, gathering, and relaxing, through play in an air-conditioned space until August 30.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Developed with New York-based design practice, Snarkitecture,<\/a> The Playground is the largest indoor installation in the Museum\u2019s history. It reimagines the familiar playground through inventive design and extraordinary scale. Scaffolding, birch plywood, cork, rope, and other materials take on new purposes through nine distinct activity zones.<\/p>\n

Rather than dictating how visitors should move through the space, the installation encourages each person to chart their own course. While there, you\u2019ll experience how thoughtful design transforms ordinary materials into extraordinary experiences.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Hill<\/strong>\u00a0serves as the centerpiece of\u00a0The Playground.<\/strong> Layers of birch plywood become a sculptural landscape with slides, tunnels, and places to gather. From there, visitors are invited to continue exploring the installation\u2019s eight additional activity zones:<\/p>\n
