Sometimes the spots with the most potential are the ones we barely notice – under a highway bridge, or a vacant lot in the middle of the city.
In Recklinghausen, one such space was transformed in just a few days into a place for movement and community. Kids on bikes, teens practicing skills, neighbors stopping by – suddenly, the grey space feels alive.
It doesn’t always take big projects to make a visible difference. Small, flexible interventions can quickly bring urban spaces to life.

Every winter, municipalities wonder: Is the ice rink still worth it?
 
High energy use, tons of water, staffing, setup, teardown… and the pressure to create active spaces for young people doesn’t get any smaller.
That’s where alternatives with zero energy consumption come in.
A Modular Pumptrack runs without electricity, without water, and is simply placed on the existing ground — ready to roll within hours.
A sustainable way to keep communities moving, even when winter hits hard.
More activity, less energy.
More fun, fewer resources.
A winter solution that makes sense.
