Uni’verse: Shared Knowledge

Building on the thesis exploring how space influences learning at school, this project examines the unique ecosystem of the mixed-age classroom. In a setting where children of different ages learn together, the space is designed to transform this diversity into a natural opportunity for mutual support and peer learning. The intention is not to disrupt existing educational practices, but to introduce a complementary tool: a multi-purpose piece of furniture designed to encourage interaction across age groups. Combining reading niches, quiet retreats, and creative areas, the system provides a personalised and adaptable environment. Mobile and reconfigurable, the module supports the teacher’s pedagogical approach.
