California headquarters for the Big and Tiny brand. Playground for adults and children

The premise of the Big and Tiny playground located in Santa Monica, California, designed by Zooco Studio using wood panels, is to be a place where the protagonists are not only children, but also their parents or elders

The project covers an area of about 500 square meters, covered by wooden trusses that cover the entire warehouse. The project aims to create two separate acoustically distinct spaces by means of wooden panels, differentiating the spaces for adults and children, within which open squares would be inserted

Two cubes are created in the children's area (Tree House and Ball pit), two in the adult area (Bike Cube and Silence Cube) and a cube in the central part connected to the children's square, where parties can be organized. All the cubes are connected by plinths or curves of wooden slats that delimit the squares and generate overall cohesion

The partition between adult and children's area has a sound insulation and a mirror on the outside on both sides, making the spaces appear larger. The main materials are wood, structural material, cork, glass, and cardboard. The whole project is modulated with wooden panels of 60x120 cm and small wooden pillars
