© Underdog Heavy Industries 1969-2011 Art It seems bizarre to us just how many playgrounds get built with little regard to visual aesthetics.  Art is a massive part of what we do and we hope it permeates everything from our choice of bricks and blocks to the finial on top of the play tower. We work with a huge range of media and use many different techniques.  We employ spray paints and stencilling, mould making and casting, sculpture, collage, ceramics and mosaics to take our playgrounds to a completely different level and give our clients products that definitely have that WOW factor. We are happy to run projects with the children to get them actively involved in the design process and to give them a sense of ownership over their new playground.  Many of the artworks shown throughout this website were originated in collaboration with students from the schools involved.  Many others were inspired by the local environment coupled with an understanding of a school’s ethos and guiding principles. We can make a fence interesting, a wall stimulating, and the ground beneath your feet vibrant and attractive.  If you’re looking for a way to refresh your existing play areas then an Outer Space Playgrounds Art Project with the children could be the way to generate a unique new look...
