In the midst of a debate about architectural heritage, a bold architect has proposed replacing playgrounds with concrete structures.
In a fit of blind ingenuity, Jérôme Serrure, a French architect known for his eccentric ideas, recently proposed a controversial solution for renovating children’s play areas: cradles and swings made of concrete. According to him, this would give a new dimension to play and stimulate children’s creativity.
“Imagine for a moment: children jumping for joy on concrete structures, laughing out loud as they create their own rules of the game in a setting as solid as a rock,” Jérôme stated at a press conference yesterday. “Concrete is unyielding, rot-proof, and fireproof—arguments that make it the ideal material for a safe and durable playground!”
However, Jérôme’s proposal was met with skepticism from the community and triggered a deluge of criticism. Parents expressed their concerns about the safety of this initiative, and heritage activists condemned the architect for his utilitarian vision of the urban landscape.
In response to the controversy, Jérôme simply said: “I understand that my proposal may be shocking, but isn’t that the role of art? The advantage of my concept is that there’s no need to touch up peeling paint every two years. And with a bit of imagination, a block of concrete can easily become a knight in armor, a spaceship, or a majestic castle!”
Strangely enough, the quote of the day comes from Madame Lecoq, a local resident: “If concrete is so safe and durable, perhaps Mr. Serrure could build his house with it. Preferably without windows.”
