According to the features of education organizations, Office Design for those type has some particular functions and utilities. To help you have an overall picture, AfA would like to provide you with some useful information of the design traits for the education company.
THE FEATURES OF EDUCATIONAL BUSINESS
The education companies are mainly divided into 2 types:
- Online Education: Providing online courses for a variety of people from students, workers and whoever demands learning a skill or gaining knowledge of something new.
- Offline Education: Refers to a traditional type of learning where learners or students are not exposed to digital learning but rather use face to face learning. The courses might be short-term or long-term course of English, IT or Digitals
Each type requires its own design style in order to supply the best experience for the learners. These two types have some similarities in design, however Offline Education will have some different features that we will mention below.
THE BASIC STANDARDS OF LEARNING SPACE
The standards include some features such as the height of tables and chairs, the airy spaces between seats, the height of ceiling and the quality of facilities as well. In addition, we should pay attention on the way of organizing the stuffs inside the classes to make sure the students having good learning environment. And this design should be suitable to use in long term.
THE FLEXIBILITY
The flexibility is one of the most important elements in design for an education center. It requires an open space in which the learners can move the stuffs to create a suitable learning space to adapt a variety of learning types or methods. Therefore, tables, chairs or other equipment should be in simple and light shapes that can be easily lifted and arranged in order. Bulky stuffs should be less in use.
THE SOUNDPROOF ABILITY
In designing, some people ignore the soundproof ability between classes, but it plays an important role in teaching and learning process. In a class, when the learners discuss with each other, they can make noises that may affect to other classes or other department in a same building. Otherwise, environment noises also make them distract from the lessons. So, you should take this feature in a deep consideration when designing for education companies. It is popular to use sound absorber or materials on constructing. If you still get confused, you can refer some advice from professional architects.
LOCATE THE CLASSES FAR FROM THE WORKING PLACE
If you can take this matter into account on choosing the location, your company will have some added values. You use less sound absorber, save costs accordingly. It makes your staffs, your students concentrate more on your jobs and increase their productivity as a result.
HIGH CEILING
High ceiling creates airy spaces for a room, that makes people who stay in feel more comfortable, more concentrate on their lessons.
CREATIVENESS STIMULATION
From the moment we walk in a place, our mood and our focus will be optimized by our surroundings. how can you design your workspace to support this creativity, keep the learners and their parents engaged in your courses? Your company design is a key for you to get that goals. It is a complete chain from your reception and lobby space to each corners in each room in you company.
