Did you find the building? Let us move on to the layout plan and the quote

The hardest part is done—time to take action! Entrust us with your architectural plans and quickly obtain a bespoke 3D layout as well as a precise cost estimate to secure your bank loan.

Finding the right building is often the longest step. Once the site has been selected, the planning and design work can begin: how to organize the space, where to place reception, the bar, the games, the birthday rooms, how to limit operating staff while maintaining a perfect overview of the whole, which materials to choose, for what budget…?

Play In Business supports you in transforming this empty warehouse into a highly profitable leisure complex. As soon as we receive your architectural plans, our design office takes over. We discuss your wishes and objectives, we draw up one or more concepts, we estimate your park’s capacity, we cost the equipment and fit-out down to the cent, and we generate 3D visuals to strengthen your banking file.

Notre bureau d'études analyse vos plans architecturaux et les contraintes de votre bâtiment pour concevoir votre parc sur-mesure.

Support from day one

You do not have time to waste. As soon as we receive your architectural plans in digital format (DWG or DXF), our technical team starts the process. As your single point of contact, we centralize your entire project to save you valuable time and secure your investment. Our approach begins with a rigorous analysis of your building’s constraints. Whether it is load-bearing columns, varying ceiling heights, or integrating ERP regulations and emergency exits, we turn these technical challenges into layout advantages.

Our design office does not simply place play equipment: it designs the complete optimization of your space. Together, we create a truly smooth traffic flow plan integrating reception, birthday areas, and leisure structures, in order to maximize the profitability of every square meter. While you manage the works (electrical, restrooms), we start the custom manufacturing of your equipment. Our teams then intervene directly on site for a fast, precise final installation. From the first sketch to the handover of the keys, Play In Business guarantees a smooth execution with no unpleasant surprises, for a stress-free opening.

Your frequently asked questions about costing and plans

Which documents do you need to prepare a quote?

To produce a serious and accurate cost estimate, we absolutely need the architectural plans of your building, ideally in digital format (DWG or DXF). A few interior photos, for example to identify beams or lighting, also help us greatly to understand the volumes before we start drawing.

My building has large columns in the middle—is that a problem?

Not at all—it is even very common! An industrial warehouse can become a superb playground. Our designers use your plans to integrate these columns directly into the internal framework of the play structures, or turn them into 100% safe decorative elements with foam padding.

What is the minimum ceiling height to validate my project?

It all depends on the activities you want to include! For a multi-level tubular soft play area, the ideal is to have at least 5 meters of clear height to truly make use of the volume. For a trampoline park, the safety standard requires a minimum clearance of 4 meters above the jump beds, i.e., a ceiling height of 5 m or 5.50 m. If your venue does not have 5 m everywhere, that is not a barrier: we will use the lower areas for other activities such as a ninja kids course, interactive games, or areas for younger children, which require less height.

How long will it take to receive my cost estimate?

As soon as we have received your DWG files and validated your budget and the desired theme together, we will be able to provide you with an accurate cost estimate. Generally, allow between 1 and 3 weeks to receive your complete file (2D layout plan, immersive 3D views, and detailed quote).

Is the installation price included in the quote?

Yes, we offer a true turnkey solution. Our quotes include the manufacturing of the play equipment, as well as all logistics (transport to your building) and the final installation carried out by our teams of specialized installers.

Chibitopia – Lingolsheim

Chibitopia: The perfect blend of an immersive mini role-play town and a giant play area

Located in Lingolsheim, near Strasbourg, Chibitopia is revolutionizing indoor leisure across 1,000 m². Play In Business designed a unique hybrid space: a miniature town dedicated to role-play, paired with an 8-metre-high tubular play structure.

An innovative concept focused on role-play

Chibitopia is not an ordinary play park. Here, the focus is on role-play and playful learning for children aged 0 to 10. We designed a real child-sized town featuring 6 full-scale immersive settings (hospital, garage, restaurant, supermarket, construction site, etc.). In these ultra-detailed spaces, children invent their own lives, and parents are invited to take an active part by playing customers or patients.

The Fire Station: A 3-level structure

To let off steam after role-play, the park’s central attraction is a gigantic tubular structure themed around a Fire Station. Play In Business made the most of the building’s volume by installing a 3-level module rising to 8 metres high. Slides, obstacle mazes and a huge ball pit allow children to assess risks and have fun in complete safety.

Exclusive areas: Snoezelen Room and The Bank

The customer experience is refined down to the smallest details. For toddlers, in addition to the classic motor-skills area, we created a dedicated “Snoezelen” room (Zen room) with soft lighting and varied textures for sensory development. For birthdays, the theming is total: the birthday child becomes the hero by entering “The Bank” vault room to discover a surprise adventure.

Alti Arena Le Puy-en-Velay

Located in Le Puy-en-Velay (Haute-Loire), Alti Arena is an innovative multi-activity indoor leisure center. To equip this dynamic space, the management entrusted Play In Business with the design and installation of its jumping and agility zones, intended for a very diverse audience, from children to adults.

Our design office created a tailor-made space combining thrills, sport, and safety across several zones:

A complete Trampoline Park: Integrating a vast free-jumping zone (Main Court), trampoline basketball hoops, and a jump tower with a giant Airbag for safe landings.
A Ninja Course: A unique physical and fun challenge in the region, composed of several modules to overcome, ideal for attracting young adults and teenagers.
A Mini Jump area: A dedicated and secure trampoline zone for introducing toddlers (2 to 5 years old) to motor skills and balance.

The realization of Alti Arena’s structures illustrates Play In Business’s expertise in developing complex sports zones, perfectly meeting the expectations of a clientele seeking interactive experiences and self-challenge.

“Je veux attirer toute la famille dans mon parc, c’est possible” ?

Puis-je attirer toutes les tranches d’âges dans mon parc ?

Voilà une question qui revient souvent auprès des porteurs de projets. Elle est tout à fait légitime et pour cause : ils ont tendance à penser qu’en attirant une tranche d’âge très large, ils pourront attirer plus de public, rentabiliser leur parc plus rapidement et ainsi décupler leur chiffres d’affaires. Cependant, la réalité est toute autre. C’est même le piège à éviter par excellence.

Mélanger enfant et ado : une bonne idée ?

La première chose à faire est de se mettre dans la tête d’un adolescent de 15 ans. A-t-il vraiment envie de venir jouer dans un espace où jouent des enfants de 6 ans ? La réponse est claire : non. Il ne voudrait pas être vu en compagnie de plus petits. C’est une question d’individualité. Il a envie d’être considéré comme le jeune adulte qu’il est et non plus comme un enfant.

Du point de vue des plus petits, il faut prendre en compte les parents et les enfants. D’un point de vue parental premièrement. Une maman qui voit son enfant de 6 ans évoluer dans un espace avec des plus grands de 15 ans ne se sentira pas rassurée. Quant à l’enfant, il n’a pas la même énergie ni la même motricité d’un ado. L’espace n’est alors pas 100% sécurisé pour lui.

Ce sont deux clientèles bien distinctes avec des codes différents, des besoins et des comportements différents. Il n’est donc pas envisageable de fusionner ces deux tranches d’âges dans un même espace.

Mono activité ou parc familial : comment choisir ?

La réponse est plutôt simple. En réalité, c’est la taille de votre bâtiment qui vous dira si vous pouvez envisager d’accueillir plusieurs tranches d’âge, ou si vous devez vous focaliser sur une seule. Pour un bâtiment de 800 à 1000m², notre conseil est simple : choisissez une cible, et tenez-vous-y. Si vous souhaitez accueillir des plus petits, entre 1 et 12 ans, vous pourrez alors opter pour l’aire de jeux. Si vous ciblez les plus grands, ados, voire jeunes adultes, vous pourrez alors opter pour le trampoline parc. Mais pas les deux en même temps.

Pourquoi ? Cela réduirait trop fortement votre capacité d’accueil pour chaque tranche d’âge et impacterait directement votre chiffre d’affaires. Aussi, vous ne pourriez pas délimiter chaque espace comme il se doit.

Nous avons accompagné des clients qui ont voulu faire les deux. Résultat : ils n’attirent ni les ados, ni vraiment les familles. On passait par l’aire de jeux pour accéder au trampolines, les adolescents ne se sentaient pas à leur place et ne revenaient pas. Le projet vivotait.

Le trampoline parc, la solution pour attirer les plus grands

Si aujourd’hui votre parc attire majoritairement les jeunes enfants et que vous souhaitez attirer une clientèle plus mûre, nous vous conseillons vivement d’opter pour le trampoline parc. En effet, cette activité s’oriente tout naturellement vers les 8-16 ans et peut tout à fait se coupler avec une aire de jeux existante. À condition d’avoir l’espace suffisant et de pouvoir bien séparer les deux activités. Les trampolines parcs de nos jours ne sont plus les mêmes qu’à l’époque. Ils permettent de jouer à plusieurs, proposent des jeux diversifiés et plaisent autant aux grands enfants qu’aux ados et même aux adultes.

L’idéal si votre bâtiment permet d’abriter les deux activités (aire de jeux et trampoline) est d’avoir une entrée commune puis de compartimenter ensuite les deux espaces. Ainsi, chaque tranche d’âge peut profiter librement de son expérience sans empiéter sur le terrain de l’autre.

Le complexe de loisirs : la solution pour attirer toute la famille

Vous rêvez d’un espace qui puisse réunir les familles ?

Des enfants jusqu’aux parents ? Pour cela une seule solution : le complexe de loisirs. Bowling, laser game, trampoline, aire de jeux, action game… Néanmoins, ce type de projet est d’une toute autre envergure.

Cela implique une surface bien plus importante à partir de 3.000 jusqu’à 6.000 m² voire 10.000 m² pour les plus grands. Les budgets sont également revus en conséquence : l’investissement est beaucoup plus conséquent et la gestion du personnel plus complexe. C’est un autre métier, une autre échelle, un autre investissement.

Même dans ce cas, la règle de la compartimentation des espaces reste la même. L’aire de jeux ne doit être accessible que par les enfants et leurs parents et sous contrôle d’accès pour des questions de sécurité. Il ne faudrait pas que les enfants puissent sortir comme bon leur semble. Le trampoline parc peut être ouvert, mais toujours sous surveillance. Le bowling peut fonctionner en quasi-autonomie. La clé est de bien compartimenter chaque espace afin de faciliter la gestion des flux et du complexe de loisir.

Mono-activité ou multi-activités : quelle tendance pour demain ?

Aux États-Unis, on observe depuis quelques années un retour à des parcs à taille humaine qu’on appelle downsizing. Les grands complexes de 10.000 à 15.000 m² ont montré leurs limites : investissements (CAPEX) très élevés, coûts d’exploitation et de maintenance élevés, personnel nombreux, concurrence féroce. Si les parcs font le plein le week-end, ils peinent à rentabiliser leur surface en semaine hors vacances scolaires. On revient à des formats plus maîtrisables et modulaires, entre 2.000 et 5.000 m², avec un meilleur retour sur investissement au mètre carré.

Si le marché français (et européen) reste dynamique, les clients sont plus exigeants. La multiactivité reste attractive, mais une chose est certaine : la taille ne fait pas tout. Une aire de jeux de 1.000 m² bien pensée, bien thématisée, bien gérée n’a rien à envier à un complexe de 3.000 m² sans âme. C’est la qualité qui fidélise, pas la superficie.

Il y aura toujours des enfants, et il y aura toujours des ados. Le marché se renouvelle en permanence. En revanche, la croissance du marché ne garantit pas à elle seule la réussite d’un parc. Choisissez bien votre cible, construisez quelque chose de moderne et d’innovant, et faites la différence par la qualité plutôt que par la quantité.

Vous avez un projet ? Nous serions ravis d’en discuter avec vous.

About us Success stories and testimonials

Play In Business: Our success story, a leisure park creator like no other

Dive into our world with an exclusive interview with Bertrand Coulomb, the founder of Play In Business.

For over 30 years, Bertrand Coulomb has been working in the leisure industry. Since his beginnings at Big Bang Schtroumpf park (now Walygator Grand Est), he has remained in the amusement park sector, becoming a major player in the construction of leisure complexes through his company Play In Business. With one guiding principle: the constant pursuit of excellence.

Discover this interview here:

Can you tell us the story of Play In Business?

Bertrand Coulomb: Play In Business was founded in 2013 in Luxembourg, a country located in the heart of Western Europe, with excellent connections between capital cities. This company is the culmination of many years as a partner to European manufacturers. After collaborating with the largest manufacturers, installing hundreds of equipment pieces, regularly discussing with operators, and participating in the development of safety standards, I wanted to propose new ideas, greater theme and provide more efficient service to our clients.

We established partnerships with suppliers selected for the quality of their products, their service, their innovation, and their originality. We thus became manufacturers of our own play equipment.

What were the key stages in the growth and success over the years?

Bertrand Coulomb: One of the crucial stages was to stop being resellers and become manufacturers of play areas, enabling us to respond more effectively to our clients. We finally design the play equipment we want, with high-quality materials and advanced theming.

Then the evolution toward multi-activity allowed Play In Business to offer equipment beyond play areas, such as the trampoline parks that we also manufacture.

Aminata Ndao played a crucial role in this development. Coming from the French subsidiary Ludo et Cie, she was an enormous boost for Play In Business thanks to her responsiveness and extraordinary work capacity. She became the partner I had been waiting for.

What elements have contributed to making Play In Business a leader in the construction of indoor play areas and trampoline parks?

Bertrand Coulomb: I think our clients first appreciate the relationship we create with them. We share our experiences, listen to their expectations, spend time finding the perfectly adapted solution for the project, visit parks we have built together, and draw detailed 3D designs of the project to ensure perfect understanding.

Then, the quality-price ratio of our trampoline parks and our indoor play areas completes the convincing of our clients.

Of course, having operated a park for several years and participated in the development of safety standards also reinforces our credibility, and we maintain contact with our clients after their opening.

Could you share an example of an iconic project that has marked the history of Play In Business?

Bertrand Coulomb: Cosmic Jump is a striking example. It was our first large trampoline park (1,200 m2 of play equipment), installed in early 2018, with significant technical constraints and many activities such as dodge ball, half pipe, foam pit, and ninja course. The park was a success, and we then installed one of the largest modular play structures in France in the adjacent building for the same client!

Can you tell us about the innovations or new trends that Play In Business has introduced this year in its indoor play areas and trampoline parks?

Bertrand Coulomb: The arrival of the ISO EN23659 standard this year shook up the trampoline park industry somewhat, but it accelerated the professionalization of the sector. We place great importance on compliance with European standards, and we support operators to ensure optimal safety for jumper visitors and their own peace of mind.

Interactive games have also taken a prominent place at the expense of the free jump zone. Interactivity has truly become a must-have in trampoline parks, and Play In Business integrates several games into each project, such as Cardio Wall, Valo Jump, Freedom Gaming… Modular play structures are not left behind with interactive screens or the Talking Bag!

What are the upcoming projects for Play In Business for next year?

Bertrand Coulomb: We have developed a new range of pretend play equipment. With these games making a strong comeback in playgrounds, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity. In addition to our initial range of small play structures covering 2–3 m², we now offer role-play areas spanning 20–30 m² with plenty of interactive features. The first park to feature this range was Chibiotopia near Strasbourg, which has proved a huge success, and the brand is now expanding under licence.

We’ll be attending IAAPA in London in September 2026 – the attractions industry’s largest trade fair – to showcase this new range. This time, it’ll be the visitors who get to play like children!

As for our upcoming installations for 2027, our schedule is already packed. Stay tuned—we will discuss them soon.

In summary, how would you describe the results of the current year for Play In Business in terms of success, achievements, and future prospects?

Bertrand Coulomb: Despite challenges related to client financing, I consider that we have had an excellent year. Our clients are satisfied, the image of Play In Business is very strong, and our quality-price ratio remains excellent. We thank our clients for their trust and collaboration, and we remain available for future projects and park upgrades.
