For skate-aid we have designed a skatepark in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The park is being built in the city “Moreno” in the province of Buenos Aires, just west of the capital Buenos Aires.
The park is approximately 1500 m² big and consists of three different levels. A bowl-level and an elevated street-level, both lead down to the large open plaza-level. This will be a very varied Skate- and Bikepark in the middle of a very vibrant country with much potential and hot blood for Skate & Bike!
More information about the progression of the project will follow shortly.
We are very happy to announce that we, together with Titus Dittmann (skate-aid), received an international Architecture Award from IOC (International Olympic Committee) and IAKS (International Association for Sports and Leisure Facilities) for our project “Skatepark in Karokh, Afghanistan“.
Here are some pictures from the ceremony on 26th October 2011 that took place during the FSB 2011 (the International Trade Fair for Amenity Areas, Sports and Pool Facilities) in Cologne.
“Concrete landscape in Dodoma, Tanzania (Africa) completed”
In collaboration with Skate-Aid (www.skate-aid.org) and Don Bosco & Africa Aid a skatepark was built at a school and training center of the Don Bosco Mission.
Don Bosco not only provided financial resources but a huge ground on the Don Bosco Vocational-Training-Centre as well. The Africa Aid supports the project financially and organizationally.
They not only have one of the largest sports facility in Tanzania but now an approximately 500 square-foot concrete skatepark. (more…)
