One of the first Kunskapsskollen schools in the UK, Twickenham Academy’s curriculum model prioritises independent and autonomous learning. To deliver this curriculum they wanted a space where students can choose where and how they work.
Jesmond Gardens Primary School in Hartlepool wanted to create a new library space in the central area of the school. The brief was to transform the space from a soft seating area to a fun and practical walk-through library.
Zioxi designed new classroom and breakout spaces for Simon De Senlis Primary. Creating a number of new products to exactly match the brief.
An inspirational showcase classroom in the heart of London. The Microsoft Showcase Classroom is an innovative environment for teachers, school leaders and students to explore new technologies in a classic Technology Hub.
Zioxi have worked with Wellington College on a number of refurbishment projects. The creation of the Mandarin Centre reflects Wellington’s interest in Asian studies and is an ideal environment in which for them to learn.
The aim of the new library and resource centre was to combine the traditional facility of books on shelves, new IT equipment for online research and spaces for the students to sit and socialise during break times.
Jesmond Gardens Primary School has nine class bases – each with mobile, agile furniture so the layout can be easily changed. The furniture in each class base is the same but they all look and feel completely different.
The vision for the school was to create classroom spaces that were flexible, the Learning Resource Centre which would become the ‘heart’ of the school and also to maximise storage space wherever possible. The classroom desks and chairs needed to be easily rearranged by the students.
Working alongside WW Martin and Folkestone Academy, Zioxi provided an imaginative and exciting furniture solution for the whole school. Zioxi developed an impressive bespoke fixed storage solution to incorporate the curved walls whilst maximising space for storage.
A new three storey teaching block comprising a theatre space, general classrooms, specialist science classrooms and offices along with an update to an existing library. The brief was to provide furniture that delivered forward thinking solutions.
Agile, versatile and comfortable spaces where teachers can change the layout according to their needs – that was Ipsley Middle School’s vision.
Working closely with ULT, Nicholas Hare and Willmott Dixon; zioxi developed the furniture solution for the whole academy, to create a learning environment ranging from Reception through to Sixth Form.
With it’s granite counters, sleek white tables and chrome-framed chairs, the multi-coloured skylight communal dining area looks and feels nothing like a school. And that’s the point – the beautifully designed spaces and high quality furniture makes both students and staff feel respected and valued.
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.
The brief was to create a space that was bright and welcoming with lots of places for the students to work. To make the best use of space, bespoke benching was made around the pillars and along the edges for individual working. In the collaborative working area interlocking tables make the area really flexible, allowing different table configurations and layouts.
The school wanted a clean modern look and Zioxi products were the solution. Designs included t41 tables, reading nooks and TeacherWalls in all the classrooms.
“When we set about creating our new learning space it was vital that we worked with a company that listened to our ideas but also bought their knowledge to the conversation Zioxi was that company" Leigh Wolmarans – Headteacher @ Lings
The brief was to create learning areas that were fun and exciting which the children would want to use. Zioxi worked closely with Denbigh Primary to develop a furniture proposal which met all of the School’s needs. The Learning Resource Centre space which has recently been renamed as ‘The Hive’ has a large curvy Bookworm shelving unit dividing the space in two.
Duston Eldean Primary School asked Zioxi to design an open plan learning space within their large LRC. The brief for the space was to create an area which was flexible and which included differing types of furniture. The school was keen to let the children choose how and where they would like to work.
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.
A computer suite which could house a number of large 27inch iMacs with a space in the centre for flexible, yet collaborative learning, that was the challenge.
A bright modern breakout space that needed to be multi functional and flexible, allowing for a range of ways of working, including collaborative groups and 1:1 learning.
To transform an unused storage area into a brand new staff ‘chill out’ space that would inspire, enthuse reinvigorate.
To create a multi-functional, multi-media Technology Hub, where the students could use a variety of mobile devices as well as fixed computers.
To create a modern space with the ‘wow’ factor to really form a focal point for the school that was both exciting for the girls, but also practical from a teaching perspective.
To incorporate a combination of reading, 'Bring Your Own Device' charging and a classroom for homework, clubs and meetings.
The library now provides a brand new and exciting learning space for the whole school community after Zioxi developed a furniture proposal which involved removing many of the dividing walls and opening up the entire space.
Areas were divided using interior architecture in the form of zioxi BookWorm and BookHive, keeping the area open but allowing multipurpose uses.
