BLOOM
Children’s Museum of Denver at Marsico Campus
Denver, Colorado, USA: 2023
Not immediately identifiable as a climbing structure, Bloom offers quiet respite and age-appropriate climbing activities for infants and toddlers. Inspired by the hidden nooks, protective walls and wild overgrowth of a secret garden, Bloom brings together a soft, rejuvenating network of spaces with abundant flora and fauna created by local artists. Designed with consideration for adult care-takers as much as children, Bloom offers sophisticated, complex colors, nuanced lighting, and grown-up comforts, which offer care-givers a moment of luxury.
