“Primary and Secondary School Makes Free and Active Learning” A closed public secondary school was renovated as a private primary and secondary school. Now in Japan, many schools are getting old and it’s time to renovate or rebuild.

In addition, a new style and approach of modern education such as “ICT education” and “active learning” are required for students’ experiential and interactive learning.

In these situations, we realized school renovation for a low cost by designing all school furniture newly which makes students learn actively collaborating within reusing the frame. For example, in the art room, there are trapezoid tables and chairs, whose layout can be changed easily in adjusting to the content of art activity and the number of students.

In the active learning room, there are comma-shaped tables and movable chairs with casters, where students can discuss actively by making different sizes of groups and moving freely.

Also, the wood used for most of the furniture including homeroom’s table and chair is only natural material, so students can learn how the wood gets aged and how to take good care of things.
