Kristineshamn skatepark is located in the activity area of the newly renovated central park. Our idea was to develop the skatepark as a public space, where the skatepark becomes a part of events and activites that will be happening in the city park. The skatepark features a lot of different street elements that are integrated into the surrounding landscape designed by Karavan landscape architects. The design language from the 70’s bathouse in Kristineshamn is found in some of the skate equipment and also lighting. Warm colours in brown, orange and corten steel interact with the park’s greenery and the surrounding building. The design language was made together with the landscape architects and has a low-key with a clear identity of its own.
