Oasis Play Space

Scientific Art Studio was asked by the Oshman Family Jewish Community Center (OFJCC) to custom design and build a completely original family play space in an under-used outdoor area of their Taube Koret Campus in Palo Alto, California.

Using our extensive materials experience, problem solving skills, and playful creativity, we presented, fabricated, and installed a unique outdoor experience reflecting the rich Jewish cultural heritage to the delight of everyone on opening day. 

CLIENT: Oshman Family Jewish Community Center

AKNOWLEDGMENTS: Playgrounds Unlimited

LOCATION: Palo Alto, CA


It is a piece of sculpture. It’s not a playground that’s your typical slides and swings. This is a play space, where kids can be really creative, make up their own games, explore…There are so many surprises built into this
