Imagine designing your own perfect treehouse and having your dream come to life in full size… Well that’s what happened for little Lottie. She won a “design your own dream treehouse” competition as part of the film launch for Croods 2.
Universal Pictures challenged children across the UK to design their very own treehouse. Image Playgrounds was selected to produce the winning design and make a little girl’s vision come true. The play structure was installed in the Idle Valley Nature Reserve so many generations of children can enjoy it and learn about the natural environment.
Croods 2 is a worldwide hit in cinemas with children all over the world and features some of the most interesting prehistoric characters you’ll come across. They live in the wild natural forests that are fraught with dangerous animals and survival is the name of the game. A treehouse stocked with supplies is exactly what the characters need!
We were delighted to be involved with such a fun, creative community project. After being apart for so long during the pandemic, this exciting new space is perfect to bring people back together.
While this treehouse was a tough challenge for our designers and manufacturers, they were more than equal to it! The build needed to feature 3 huge towers connected with bridges sprinkled with leaves and show interesting facts about the world around us.
Children have to climb up the structure to get in and the exit is a long slide back down to the ground below. There are lots of places to run, hide and climb, as well as handy binoculars for keeping look out for any dangerous creatures…
As much fun as we had designing and building Lottie’s creation, nothing gave us as much joy as seeing her face when we saw the treehouse for the first time. Our team were thrilled to see how excited Lottie and her friend were to try the equipment for the first time!
It’s Image Playgrounds’ passion to turn dreams into reality so we really enjoyed this project and look forward to many more like it. Will you be visiting the playground treehouse after watching the new movie?
