SILENTIQ^® - Inclusion

Enabling diversity. Playing, moving and being active together.

Inclusive movement spaces are created when people with different abilities, interests and needs find opportunities to be active, connect with others and spend time together.
With SILENTIQ®, we create sports and movement spaces that bring different activities together. Different forms of movement, levels of difficulty and ways of using the space create opportunities for individual abilities – and for shared experiences.
We do not see inclusion as an addition, but as an integral part of holistic planning. Access, pathways, surfacing, orientation, perception, safety and movement activities work together.
This creates spaces that are not designed for individual user groups, but can be used by many people together.

Movement offers many possibilities

Balancing, jumping, throwing, dribbling or kicking – movement can be experienced in many different ways.

SILENTIQ® combines different movement activities and levels of activity within one shared space. Those looking for a challenge can find demanding movement activities. Those who prefer a calmer approach can observe, balance, explore or simply be part of the experience.
Everyone can decide for themselves how they want to use the activity space.

• Movement supports strength & Endurance

• Coordination & Mobility

• Balance & Body control

• Motor skills & Body awareness

• Orientation & Perception

• Reaction & Concentration

• Self-confidence & Risk competence

• Team spirit & Fair play

• Social interaction

• Participation & Shared experiences

Together rather than side by side

For us, inclusion does not mean that everyone has to do the same thing.
A good activity space offers different opportunities that can be used at the same time.

While some are playing football, others can climb, balance, train, observe or interact with others (SILENTIQ® FUSION). Different activities can take place in parallel while still being part of one shared space for movement and interaction.
This creates natural opportunities for people to connect – without everyone having to have the same abilities, interests or level of activity.
Playing together means that everyone can find their own way to participate.

Inclusion starts with planning

An inclusive movement space is not created simply by adding a single “inclusive” piece of equipment.

What matters is the interaction between access, pathways, surfacing, orientation, safety and a variety of movement activities.
That is why we consider the entire space:
Access → Orientation → Movement → Interaction → Social Interaction
Sensory aspects can also play an important role. Materials, structures and deliberate colour contrasts can support perception and orientation and make movement activities easier to understand and navigate.
Inclusion therefore becomes a question of the overall design of the space – not a single equipment solution..

Activity spaces for different abilities

SILENTIQ® brings sport, play and movement together within one shared design.

Depending on the location, target group and available space, individual solutions can be created – from sports fields and multisport facilities to complex movement landscapes.
Different requirements are not considered separately, but are brought together to create one shared space.
This creates movement opportunities for children, young people and adults with different interests, experiences and abilities.

SILENTIQ® brings inclusion to life

With our systems, movement spaces are created where different activities come together and can take place at the same time..

Sport. Play. Movement. Interaction.
SILENTIQ® creates the spatial conditions that allow people to find their own way to movement while still being part of a shared whole.
This can also be seen in current projects such as SILENTIQ® FUSION, where different movement and sports activities are combined to create a versatile and multifunctional movement space.

Inclusive movement spaces in practice

From the initial idea to the final implementation, we develop solutions that are tailored to the respective location and its users.
