PROBLEM

Playgrounds are static. Children are not.

SOLUTION

A modular playground system built on reconfigurable segment-based components that can be rearranged as the community grows and children's needs change. Solar-powered lighting extends play hours. Impact-absorbing ground surface. Includes a parent bench with USB charging because parents are also people. ADA compliant. Photographable for grant applications.

components

A standardized building block of the whole MTREES Universe, called the Burrito Builder. Each segment hosts one or more components and connects above and below via universal locking collar. Stack as many as the ceiling allows.

A photovoltaic collection surface that converts ambient sunlight into usable electrical energy. Powers the Pro tier motor, the recycler, and whatever else needs electrons. Works best outdoors, which is exactly where this product lives.

A locking joint system that bonds structural modules together on site. Weatherproof, load-bearing, and reversible. Holds the halves together and accepts future expansion modules.

A closed-cell foam cushioning module inspired by the pool toy of the same energy. Mounts along the lower contact edge of the Backpack Crack to provide lumbar support and impact absorption. Soft enough to forget it is there. Supportive enough to notice when it is gone. Originally designed to float. Now it just makes your back feel better during esports marathons.

Multi-port USB distribution node. Powers, charges, and connects devices simultaneously. The electrical octopus of the Cave Pipe.

A solar-powered public seating module with integrated USB charging ports, ambient lighting, and an optional wifi hotspot. Provides a place to sit and a reason to stay. The bench that gives back.
