INSIGHTS + APPLICATIONS GUIDE
Our Insights and Applications Guide provides the latest thinking on classroom design and learning spaces.
CLASSROOMS
We rethink “the box” and move away from the traditional setting of rows of fixed tablet chairs and a lectern.
LIBRARIES
Today’s students demand choices, requiring libraries to offer a range of spaces to support the many ways they learn.
IN-BETWEEN SPACES
Every space is a learning space. We reimagine how lounges, hallways and other informal areas can be flexible, friendly learning spaces for individuals and groups.
