Warner Avenue Elementary School Playground

As part of our giving back to the community, MMA had the pleasure of designing the new playground for the Warner Avenue Elementary School in Little Holmby Hills. At the urging of several parents and faculty, we decided to assist LAUSD with the remodeling project. As the project developed, MMA created a clear plan that established the basis for the entire remodel.

The project included all new landscaping, multiple game courts and a running track for the kids, which encompassed the entire playground. The original concept also called for providing a central stage for all school assemblies and performances. The back side of the main auditorium was used as the location and a rendering of The City of Oz was created to remind the children, "there's no place like home!" Staying with the overall theme, the running track was painted yellow for obvious reasons.

We were honored and delighted to be such an integral part of this important project. We'd do it again in a heartbeat. Nicky, Rachel and William Marquez were also thrilled with their Dad's design and we're more than delighted to share it with all of their fellow students.
