WHAT WE DO
We work with creative minds who want to build something extraordinary and bold. We help turn that ambition into playgrounds and outdoor structures that are genuinely buildable.
Every project combines imaginative design thinking, practical expertise, and a deep understanding of materials and fabrication.
Our mission is to help you build what others wouldn't attempt — turning visions that inspire and engage into designs that work in reality.
Our Expertise Includes:
-
Concept & Problem Solving — early-stage design input to ensure your vision is protected and elevated throughout the process.
-
Custom Outdoor Structures — unique designs tailored to the space, client vision, and end users.
-
Playgrounds & Play Environments — safe, engaging, and imaginative spaces that spark exploration and creativity.
-
Design for Fabrication — ambitious ideas engineered to be practical, buildable, and durable.
WHY CHANGO STUDIO
1. Direct access & streamlined communication
You work with me, the designer, from the first conversation through to installation — with no one in between. Ideas get understood the first time, feedback happens fast, and problems get solved together as they come up, not passed along a chain of people who slow things down.
2. Real industry expertise
Years of hands-on experience — from POP design, to precision machining, to nearly a decade in playground design — bring a rare cross-industry depth of knowledge to even the most ambitious ideas.
3. Australian Manufactured
Manufactured in collaboration with Australia's leading manufacturers and fabricators, meeting the highest standards for safety, quality, and long-term durability.
4. Multidisciplinary team
Every project is developed alongside independent engineers and playground safety assessors, bringing outside expertise into the process from day one.
5. Engineered and certified
Every project is engineered and certified by independent structural and civil engineers and playground safety inspectors, meeting Australian standards.
✓ No middlemen, no confusing handovers
✓ Your ideas understood the first time, not relayed through someone else
✓ Streamlined collaboration at every stage
✓ Speaks the design language — understands concepts instantly
✓ Problems solved together as they arise, not after the fact
HOW WE WORK
We keep the design journey clear and collaborative.
Not everyone starts with a sketch. Some clients bring a fully formed idea — others just a feeling for what they want, based on a location, a budget, or something they've seen. Either way, this is where the design takes shape.
