A collection of writings by a celebrated playground architect. This volume collects 1960s-70s writings by architect Cornelia Hahn Oberlander, who urged city planners to recognize playgrounds as crucial sites for childhood development. In texts as diverse as a short history of play, private reflections, and a public appeal for children's rights, Hahn Oberlander develops a theory of architecture that requires users' input--especially children. This attention to care permeates every aspect of her work, from her use of recycled materials to her preference for building on vacant lots. An introduction by Jane Mah Hutton rounds out this collection, exploring intersections of active play, ecological thinking, and enthusiastic advocacy at the center of Hahn Oberlander's writing and practice.
