CUSTOMISED OR BESPOKE PLAYGROUND: WHICH IS BEST?
16 Mar 2022
There is a common dilemma experienced when playground designers, landscape architects and developers are looking for an iconic play structure that stands apart – do we go customised modular equipment or completely bespoke?
It is interesting to trace these words back to the business suit tailoring industry. There are three main options when purchasing a business suit - an ‘off the shelf’ suit, a customised suit, or a bespoke suit.
The ‘off the shelf’ suits are standard products that have been designed to provide ease of purchase and to a budget. Typically, this range allows for no or little changes. .jpg)
Customisation, however, starts with a well proven model or pattern and can be customised with a large range of materials, colours, different fits, and additional features. Bespoke is a different ball game altogether. This begins with a blank canvas (no pattern or plan), has endless choices of material and the outcome is totally unique.
The choice many businesspeople make when selecting a suit is like that of creating a playground, should you go ‘off the shelf’, custom or bespoke?
