At EXIT Toys, we design outdoor play products that inspire, surprise, and last for generations. That’s why we’re beyond proud that our EXIT Yuki 100 playhouse and EXIT Yuki 300 playhouse with slide have been awarded the iF DESIGN AWARD 2025: a prestigious recognition for outstanding design, innovation, and sustainability.
Our product development team in the Netherlands worked hard to create a playhouse that’s not just a dream for kids but also impresses parents with smart design, high-quality materials, and an eco-friendly approach. So, what makes the Yuki series so special? Here are five reasons why Yuki is an award winner!
What makes the Yuki stand out? It’s a playhouse and play tent in one! Combining the sturdiness of a wooden house with the adventurous look of a tent, it gives kids a real camping experience. Affordable, innovative, and packed with play value: Yuki scored high on uniqueness because it brings a whole new way to play!
A playhouse isn’t just about play – it’s about style too! The Yuki series features a pitched roof and natural colour palette, blending perfectly into any garden. The sturdy green fabric gives it a cosy, adventurous feel that sparks kids’ imaginations. The iF jury gave the Yuki top marks for design and target group-specific aesthetics.
A playhouse should be fun for kids and practical for parents. That’s why we designed Yuki with both in mind:
✔ Easy access: kids can hop in and out effortlessly
✔ Magnetic closing doors: automatically shut but can also be rolled up
✔ Roomy enough for multiple kids: perfect for group play
✔ Quick to assemble: thanks to pre-assembled wooden frames and a lightweight build
✔ Yuki 300 playhouse with slide: an extra thrill for active kids!
These smart design choices make Yuki playhouses easy to use, functional, and super versatile, which earned them a high iF score for functionality.
Why is the Yuki playhouse so relevant? Because it delivers exactly what today’s families need: affordable, high-quality, and innovative play solutions. We designed a lightweight, compact-packed, and easy-to-ship playhouse, making it accessible for families worldwide. The iF jury praised Yuki as innovative and forward-thinking, cleverly catering to both parents and kids.
Sustainability is key at EXIT Toys, and Yuki is proof of that. It’s made from FSC®-certified cypress wood, sourced from responsibly managed forests. The FSC® label guarantees eco-friendly, socially responsible, and sustainable forestry, preventing deforestation and protecting ecosystems. Plus, cypress wood is naturally weather-resistant without needing chemical treatments.
Yuki is also built to last:
✔ 100% repairable: spare parts available for at least 5 years
✔ Made from mono-materials: nearly fully recyclable
✔ UV- and weather-resistant: durable wood and UV-resistant fabric for long-lasting fun
✔ Compact packaging: reducing CO₂ emissions during transport
These eco-friendly choices earned Yuki top scores for sustainability and social responsibility.
With these five standout features, the EXIT Yuki 100 playhouse and EXIT Yuki 300 playhouse with slide are officially among the best-designed kids' products of 2025! Want an award-winning playhouse for your little ones? Discover the Yuki series and see for yourself why it’s a global winner!
