Highly acoustic floor mats and upholstery add coziness in addition to textile surfaces with a good and peaceful sound world. The idea of \u200b\u200ba mobile school inspired users and designers to create physically active and diverse teaching spaces where each student can find a suitable way to work. The facilities and furniture were carefully selected taking into account diverse learning and different teaching situations.<\/p>\n

The design was done in close collaboration with the users. With the help of the principal, enthusiastic students were involved in the planning. The design team formed by the students researched different furniture choices by testing and considering their usage properties together with the designers. The loose furniture has taken special account of the child’s sizing and ergonomics, as well as their needs in diverse school work.<\/p>\n
