Founded in 1983, Theories Landscapes provides a comprehensive design-and-build service for primary school playgrounds.

The company works closely with teachers, children and the community to create enriching landscape play environments that form the hub of a child’s physical, emotional, educational and social development.

Projects are designed and delivered within a fixed budget, and can be structured in phased stages in order to ease the financial cost. Theories Landscapes can also assist with the process of sourcing and securing funds.
