Designing for People—Not Just Play
What sets Blackburn Recreation apart is design that starts with people. Beyond just swings and slides, every project is shaped by community needs, age groups, site constraints, and usage patterns. Whether it’s a school looking for safe play equipment, a church needing a gathering space, or a homeowner wanting a backyard playset, the planning process includes elements like:
Age-appropriate play zones
Inclusive and ADA-compliant equipment
Well-thought-out flow and supervision areas
Durable surfacing and shade integration
Site-specific safety and accessibility measures
By taking this human-centered approach, Blackburn Recreation ensures spaces are inviting, functional, and safe.
