About PLAYLINK - Our Story
PLAYLINK is an independent UK-based company specializing in the creation and enhancement of shared communal spaces. With over 25 years of experience, we have successfully completed more than 70 projects, earning the satisfaction of over 40 clients. Focusing on inclusivity, sustainability, and innovation, we collaborate with communities to design parks, public squares, playgrounds, and more. Our mission is to foster environments where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.
Our team comprises dedicated professionals passionate about transforming public spaces into vibrant, engaging areas that promote social interaction and well-being. We believe that thoughtfully designed communal spaces can significantly enhance the quality of life for individuals and communities alike.
In our projects, we prioritize sustainable practices, utilizing eco-friendly materials and innovative design solutions to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also environmentally responsible. We engage closely with community members throughout the design and implementation process, ensuring that the spaces we create reflect their needs, desires, and cultural identities.
Our portfolio showcases a diverse range of projects, from urban parks that serve as green oases in bustling cities to playgrounds that encourage imaginative play and physical activity among children. Each project is a testament to our commitment to excellence and our ability to adapt our designs to suit the unique characteristics of each community and site.
At PLAYLINK, we are not just creating spaces; we are building connections, fostering inclusivity, and contributing to the sustainable development of communities across the UK. Our ongoing dedication to our clients and the communities we serve continues to drive us to innovate and excel in every project we undertake.
What We Do
Shaping Communities Through Design
From consultancy to implementation, PLAYLINK delivers comprehensive services tailored to meet the unique needs of every project. Our expertise spans public spaces, housing estates, schools, and specialized provisions. Each design reflects our commitment to enhancing connection, creativity, and accessibility.
Our consultancy services encompass initial site assessments, community engagement, and strategic planning, ensuring that each project is grounded in a deep understanding of the local context and stakeholder needs. We collaborate closely with clients to develop bespoke designs that prioritize user experience, safety, and sustainability.
In public spaces, we transform underutilized areas into vibrant communal hubs that encourage social interaction and foster a sense of belonging. Our projects in parks and public squares integrate natural elements with innovative play features, creating inclusive environments for all age groups.
Within housing estates, we focus on creating ‘village greens’—shared spaces that promote informal, cross-generational interactions among residents. By incorporating seating, pathways, and low-key play affordances, we design areas that are both functional and inviting.
In educational settings, our designs enhance outdoor learning and play experiences. We create dynamic environments that support children’s development, encouraging exploration and imaginative play. Our work in schools and nurseries reflects our understanding of the importance of play in education.
For specialized provisions, we address the unique requirements of diverse user groups, including those with special educational needs and disabilities. Our designs ensure accessibility and inclusivity, enabling all individuals to engage meaningfully with the spaces we create.
Throughout the implementation phase, we manage all aspects of project execution, from coordinating with contractors to overseeing construction, ensuring that the final outcome aligns with the envisioned design and meets the highest standards of quality.
At PLAYLINK, our holistic approach ensures that each project not only meets but exceeds client expectations, resulting in spaces that are cherished by communities and stand the test of time.
