Custom Design

ID Sculpture’s proprietary materials and methods put custom design within reach for any commercial project or playground. Whether you want custom play boulders to match local rock formations, interactive sculptures that are culturally important for your community, or a one-of-a-kind destination park, our design team will work with you to make it a reality.

Collaboration

We work closely with landscape architects, communities, and owners to make their visions become reality. When you choose to work with ID Sculpture, you’ll be invited to participate in the design phase to ensure that the finished product meets your exact needs and specifications.

We’ll start by getting familiar with your ideas, your budget, and the characteristics of the site. Many clients come with designs of their own or request specific themes, but this isn’t required. If you need help getting started, the IDS catalog features a variety of designs ready for fabrication. Both made-to-order and catalog features can be customized by specifying local rock types, geologic features or even specific movements from a favorite climb.

Once a concept is established, we’ll use your input to develop a digital 3-D model and get your feedback to make sure we’re on the right track. You’ll have final approval before we develop complete sealed construction documents and shop drawings.

Working collaboratively is important to us — it ensures that you receive a final product that meets your aesthetic and functional needs and stays within your budget. Our entire design and production workflow has been developed to ensure that what you see and approve through the design phase is consistent with what arrives on site.

Immersive Playground Environments

At ID Sculpture, we know that every site is unique. We have pioneered the art of fusing play environments with dynamic sites. By leveraging structural elements like retaining walls and buildings, we turn infrastructure into opportunity. Let us help you explore the options for your site to create an immersive play experience.

Public Art + Interactive Sculpture

In addition to playgrounds, ID Sculpture offers a wide range of fabrication services to the public art world. From iconic gateway features to interactive sculptures, we are a trusted source for large-scale art fabrication. We work with artists and stakeholders to help them develop their vision, taking the idea from concept to installation. We also help with material testing, construction coordination, and engineering along the way to ensure the flawless execution of your project.

Linked Play

Whether it’s one of our classic boulder combinations, a deck access and slide, or a series of functionally linked log steppers and fallen trees, ID Sculpture understands that linked play is fun play. Our precision design and fabrication process allows us to design layouts that are accurate to the inch and combine playground and climbing sculptures with a wide range of products including durable nets or third-party components.

Land Forming, Berms, and Mounds

Ever wish you could shape your landscape? There's no reason to settle for a flat, featureless play area when you can transform open spaces into dynamic play events that rise right out of the ground. Our proprietary process allows you to create accurate 3-dimensional shapes like berms, mounds and embankments suitable for a variety of surfacing systems.
