At the Eye Centre of Southampton Hospital, IKC created a unique play environment featuring the All Aboard Ship Play System. In a setting where tension and uncertainty are often present, this installation offers children a safe place to escape for a moment. The result: more calm for both young patients and their parents.
A carefully designed play concept
The ship-shaped play system invites imaginative play and exploration. With interactive elements and a recognizable theme, it creates an environment that immediately engages children and draws them into their own adventure. The design integrates seamlessly into the healthcare setting, with a focus on calm, clarity and a warm atmosphere.
More calm, less tension
A well-designed play area does more than entertain. It helps reduce stress, provides distraction during waiting times and contributes to a more positive care experience. Children are calmly engaged, allowing parents and healthcare staff to experience greater peace in the space.
Designed for healthcare environments
Safety, hygiene and durability are central to this installation. The system is robust, low-maintenance and fully accessible, ensuring that every child – regardless of age or ability – can play safely. A future-proof solution that fits perfectly within the demands of a modern healthcare facility.
A thoughtfully designed play solution that contributes to comfort, trust and a people-centered care environment.
