A play space workshop took place in and for Leipzig's city center together with Leipzig's next generation. After a tour of the city center, play options were painted, kneaded and crafted for the initial project in Reichsstraße - and these results were presented to three teams of planners and artists, who translated them into feasible designs. The work of the Halle artist Jan Viecenz was the most popular, and GFSL was entrusted with the landscape architectural implementation of the artistic design for a labyrinth. The labyrinth's labyrinth paths were created by "cutting" path surfaces into the existing raised beds. A spatial effect is achieved through the combination of angled support elements and hedge planting.
