LEARNING SPACE DESIGN LAB^™

Learning Space Design Lab™ offers a transformative experience for educators and school communities aiming to rethink their current educational environments or programme new facilities for future-focussed pedagogies.

This award-winning innovative workshop is a powerful tool for the (re)design of learning environments and larger-scale educational planning. And it goes far beyond reimagining physical spaces; it’s about fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and student-centered learning. The workshop facilitates a deeper understanding of how the physical environment can support diverse teaching and learning styles and provide an inclusive, welcoming learning environment for all learners where they enjoy choice and agency.

We invented Learning Space Design Lab™ to enable all voices to come together in a playful, collaborative way, building ownership for change. Our unique approach engages educators, students and other key stakeholders in a hands-on, collaborative design process, prototyping new or changed spaces. This enables bold and transparent strategic steps towards integrating space design into teaching and learning practices.

By involving entire teams, faculties, and student bodies in the design process, the workshop builds collective ownership around a shared vision and motivates participants to actively transform their classrooms and the learning culture of the school.

Our unique Learning Space Design Lab™ workshop takes about 2-4 hours.

It is often part of a series of workshops, developing a new vision for the school or planning new facilities. Or even developing a district-wide pedagogical vision.

We work with individual teams, whole faculties, student councils and key stakeholders.

THE PEDAGOGY OF
LEARNING SPACES

In this workshop we explore how classrooms can be reimagined through choice of furniture and interior design as well as how spaces are used.

REDESIGN YOUR SCHOOL

In this workshop, we focus on your school’s specific spaces. Working in physical models of key spaces in your school, we support your teams in collaboratively exploring the power of learning environments

EDUCATIONAL PLANNING

Here, we co-create your educational programme when designing or redesigning your school. We work closely with all key stakeholders and architects through a series of workshops to develop and follow through on the vision.

A GATEWAY TO A NEW VISION

Learning Space Design Lab is an ideal element in a process towards developing a collective mission and vision for your school in which both students, faculty and other key stakeholders have voice and ownership.
