Alpharetta

Alpharetta

5/5/2025

The City of Alpharetta is a suburban community located outside of Atlanta proper. The current “skatepark” at Union Hill Park is a slab with minimal DIY-style features. The entire park was being reenvisioned by landscape architecture firm, DIX-HITE, and they reached out to Platform for the skatepark-specific design. The result is a modest-sized community skatepark that was fit into a formerly underutilized space. With a solid variety of street obstacles and quarter-pipes that create a mini-ramp, Union Hill Park will now be a destination for both locals and visitors alike.

Adaptive and Neurodivergent Considerations in Skatepark Design Thinking at Platform Group

Adaptive and Neurodivergent Considerations in Skatepark Design Thinking at Platform Group

7/27/2024

Skateparks are just as much a social vehicle as they are a sports facility. Because of this, it’s important to consider the amenities and experience surrounding the skatepark facility. Chaperones, parental units, non-active friends, and support are all part of the social community that will utilize the passive areas of the skatepark. Access from all angles and intentional design of the perimeter of the park is just as important as the field of play itself.
