SWISS PLAY ZONES

More engagement. Less friction.

Objective

Our goal is simple: to give people a natural reason to participate, interact, and meet one another—while making the organizer’s life as easy as possible.

Participate. Interact. Connect.

No screen. No electricity. No forced interaction.

Why are we doing this?

Events are becoming increasingly sophisticated.

Catering. Music. Security. Speeches. Technical aspects. Schedules. Invitations. Budgets.

And yet, the simplest question often remains unanswered:

What will people actually do in between all these moments?

We believe that a good event shouldn't just bring people together in one place.

He should provide them with natural opportunities to meet.

That's where TAK TAK TAK comes in.

Fewer screens.
More human interaction.

We already spend a large part of our days in front of screens.

An event can offer something else.

Move. Try. Observe. Try again. Laugh. Help someone. Talk to someone you didn't know five minutes ago.

Our activities are intentionally analog.

No screen.
No app.
No generator.
No technology required to participate.

The activity itself is not the goal. It provides an opportunity for interaction.

Why don't we just rent out activities?

Because we tried.

And we realized that simply setting up equipment doesn't create the same experience.

When our team is on site, they can explain an activity, adjust a rule, keep things running smoothly, tidy up an area, change the setup, move equipment when the weather changes, or simply help someone take their first step.

We don't just monitor activities. We run the area.

That’s also what allows us to cover normal breakage and small lost items without sending a surprise bill after the event.

Why don't we bill based on the number of activities?

Because the number of activities says almost nothing about how an area will actually function.

An activity can accommodate two, four, or five people at a time—but that doesn't tell us how long they'll stay, how many times they'll repeat it, whether it's played individually or in teams, or whether we'll use simplified rules, challenges, variations, or a more competitive format.

Two configurations with exactly the same number of activities can therefore have completely different capacities, rhythms, and uses.

What really matters is your event:

  • How many people are expected to attend;

  • how many people might want to participate at the same time;

  • the available space;

  • the duration of use;

  • the program around;

  • how participants move around;

  • the role that the area is to play in the event.

The number of activities is a result of these parameters—not the starting point.

That's why we build the package based on your event, rather than asking you to choose a number of activities yourself.

You don't pay for a set number of activities. You pay for a solution designed to work in your specific context.

Why is the price the same everywhere in Switzerland?

Because we already know how complicated organizing an event can be.

Kilometers. Travel expenses. Staff. Setup. Logistics. Surcharges.

We have chosen to simplify things as much as is reasonably possible.

Our packages are clearly priced and include shipping within Switzerland, installation, and on-site support from our team under normal operating conditions.

The organizer should have a clear understanding of their budget before contacting us.

Exceptional constraints—such as difficult access, multiple separate locations, or additional staff—are simply added when they actually affect the service.

Thoughts from the organizer's perspective

The person who organizes an event is not always a professional event planner.

She might work in HR, marketing, engineering, or administration, or manage a team—and suddenly find herself tasked with organizing an event for several hundred people.

She already has enough on her plate.

So our job is also to overturn decisions.

Prices listed.
Recommended configuration.
Transportation arranged.
Installation provided.
On-site team.
Customization during the event.

Your team is organizing the event.

We manage participation.

Build less. Build better.

TAK TAK TAK comes from the world of Schuster Design and woodworking.

We design our products ourselves and have everything that can reasonably be manufactured in Switzerland produced at our partner workshop.

We prioritize wood and Swiss materials whenever possible, significantly limit the use of plastic, avoid disposable items, and build components that can be reused event after event.

For items that we cannot produce locally—such as certain balloons or accessories—we rely on external suppliers.

More participation.
Less consumption.

An idea that became a system

It all started with a few wooden installations.

Then we saw what was happening around them.

People stopped.
They looked.
Someone tried.
Another person joined in.
A conversation began.

Whether at small events or large public gatherings, the same pattern kept repeating itself.

Participate → Interact → Connect.

Today, that is the principle we use to design each area.

Where We Want to Go

TAK TAK TAK does not want to become Switzerland's largest game catalog.

We want to be the partner people think of when an event needs participants.

A compact area for a cocktail reception.
Multiple areas for a large event.
An intergenerational space for an anniversary celebration.
Ultimately, complete environments where activities, furnishings, relaxation, and hospitality work together.

Still with the same idea:

Create a welcoming, people-friendly space that’s easy to incorporate into the event.
