A team of highly experienced education designers, Steve Collis and Sophie Fenton have combined expertise in strategy, design and construction.
From strategy or design only to design & build, if you are looking for an experienced partner in innovative classroom design or school building design, you're in the right place.
Be it in the construction of physical spaces, designing professional learning and curriculum adaptation or innovative pedagogy, solving the technology piece or designing a strategy to help you realise the educational goals for your learning community, we can provide inspiring solutions for your learning spaces and experiences.
We have offices in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, and work on school and higher education projects Australia-wide.
When we design in education, we design from a place of empathy and combine the needs of people, the possibilities of technology and the educational goals of the school or university in a human-centred design. Our concept of learner-centred includes everyone: leadership, teachers, professional staff and students. We design learning experiences for the professional development of leaders, teaching and non-teaching staff. We design educational environments and experiences that foster learning for students.
We are researchers and practitioners in futures of learning design. The goalposts for successful spaces are shifting as the world is changing, and so must the classrooms that support contemporary learners. We know that at the heart of any 21st century learning space is clearly articulated pedagogy. Without this, the space will fail.
If you are currently establishing a pedagogy like Project-based Learning, or wish to catalyse flexible & collaborative learning spaces, we're uniquely placed to provide support. Our consultants are experienced school teachers and school leaders and are experts in project management, design and architecture.
We find that each school or university we work with has their own special DNA that can be outworked in the spaces they create and inhabit. Often there are one or more lenses that the organisation is using to articulate what a great experience in a great environment really looks like in practice. Our role is to understand your aspiration and provide just the right skills and support to bring it to life.
Your immediate challenge might be pretty simple - your numbers are growing or your current spaces are aging, and you need to quickly and efficiently scope a solution or update your Masterplan. Or you may have some special interests whose time has come to be realised through the building of a STEAM or STEM space or Makerspace.
We have extensive experience across a range of pedagogical approaches and assessment techniques, and can design both physical spaces and educational practices to support your school or university’ educational objectives. Whatever your current goal, we'll make it our mission to get you there.
