The schools desire was to provide their students with the facilities to use technology as part of their learning. Their current library was underused and very traditional, and students tended to use the IT suites rather than the library for studying. For the new LRC space, they wanted to incorporate a combination of reading, BYOD charging and a classroom for homework, clubs and meetings.
zioxi used t41s combined with Rechargeable powerHubs. Storage space and colour was added using zioxi’s CubeWall, integrated with soft seating and coloured doors.
zioxi also designed bespoke curved poseur height desks with integrated powerHubs, to act as both room divider between the classroom area and the meeting space to the rear of the room and to create a different level of studying space without losing the device charging element. At the back of the room, zioxi added to large tables with chunky frames that could be split in two for separate meetings, or utilised as a board meeting space.

The vision for the school was to create a bright and engaging learning environment which would become an important space for not only the pupils at the school, but also for the wider community. A CubeWall system was designed to provide a colourful landscape of storage cubes around the perimeter of the room.
This unique school was designed to incorporate curves instead of straight lines.The brief was to create furniture that could be used in original and innovative ways by teachers.
