A Chinese architectural firm posted renderings that look like a brand new concept for family fun on Royal Caribbean's activity and sports deck.
100architects posted a series of artist renderings from two different projects for a two-deck playground space on an unnamed Royal Caribbean ship.
None of these renderings, nor the project itself, have been announced by Royal Caribbean. It is entirely possible these will not be used on any cruise ship, as project designs, budgets, and needs can change.

The first project is noted as having been done for Royal Caribbean in September 2019, and is described as "a colorful playscape for the top deck of an international cruise boat".

The architects were inspired by the ocean waves, and designed this colorful playscape for the top deck of a Royal Caribbean ship. The firm's website lists it as a design for the Icon Class of ships.

There are 7 waves and each of them has a different and particular function to offer for different age groups.

There is also a 9 hole mini golf course as part of the design.
As you can see from the renderings, the area has a very colorful playscape look that takes inspiration from surrealism. The architects note that it intends to immerse guests, "in a surrealist world, where big flowers work as sun shading objects and tree houses including playful features to free kids’ imagination."

Each house contains a different activity taking into account both, aspects of children’s development, as well as being fun and safe to use.
