This could be a funny alternative to plain old walking. “Liber Toit”, a concept by Aureline Ranson transforms the neighborhood into a giant hamster-like jungle gym! Designed to utilize the full abilities of our bodies, a network of ramps, obstacles, walls, slides and tubes connects locations throughout a city. Instead of sidewalks and stairs, you can climb, crawl, jump and zoom your way to where you are going.

Imagine a system that connects every building in ways that encourages exercise but also lets you explore your home turf in from new perspectives.

See more pictures of the design on Yanko Design, a great web magazine dedicated to introducing the best modern international design.
What do you think about such design ideas? How could you implement such a system in public space? What about safety and zoning issues?

a really urban toys concept… just like “toys” for the urban skateboards..

while walk we can exercise too. but it’s really effective if located in every place thorough cities. wasting.. i think
