Ashlee McFarlane
PLAYGROUND DESIGNER
Talk about levelling up your landscaping! Ashlee is a qualified landscape designer and horticulturalist who made the leap from plants to playgrounds to be our superstar playground designer. She brings all her skills and knowledge about what makes a great outdoor space, combines it with her passion for play, and the result is magic playgrounds that our communities love!
Ashlee loves to explore and challenge herself (in fact she thinks her alter-ego might be an intrepid world explorer) which are the perfect elements to bring to playground design. She lets her imagination run wild to design spaces that encourage young and old to climb, swing, balance, and scramble!
Ashlee says she’s happiest when outdoors, which is probably why one of her favourite aspects of the job is heading out to test new playgrounds and equipment. But if she’s not out playing, you might find her camping, cooking, or listening to her favourite tunes.
Favourite part of the job?
Using my imagination all day and every day to design and create!
