Our innovative education desk allows you to be a leader in education technology trends – and to meet the challenges of our changing world and the future of education. We are ready to implement these concepts, and others, into your portfolio today
What
Project Connect uses new education technology trends to meet the challenges of our changing world and the future of education.
Who
This concept was created for school children, pre-K to 5th grade, who benefit from a socially distanced, simple-to-use technology interface. It can also be used for home schooled children, and those with medical conditions who require remote learning.
Where
A dedicated workspace in the home that provides students the necessary tools to match the in-person learning experience. The dedicated space creates a physical and healthy separation between a child’s home life and school life.
Result
We created a concept desk filled with creative and exciting technology, giving our customers new ideas to make the transition from classroom to distance learning as seamless as possible.
After multiple iterations and internal ideation, we developed a desk that balances a familiar form with futuristic capabilities. Parents and children should be able to choose how and when to use education technology. So, we created a way to hide many of the desk’s technology elements when not in use.
Traditional and unique
A contemporary desk that feels as familiar to a child as walking into a classroom. Each one is color customizable—just as unique as the child sitting in it.
Growth and comfort
The desk can be a permanent fixture for children ranging from pre-K through elementary school. Children should be comfortable while learning, but traditional desks are typically one size fits all with little to no room for adjustment. So, we designed the legs of desks and chairs to be easily replaced with taller or shorter legs, so that the desk grows with the child.
