Fresh Start in Education with Furniture?

Blog – November 8, 2021

The answer is a resounding yes. As colleges and universities turn their attention to the future of their multi-use environments – following a year and a half of pandemic driven learning – designers believe better furniture is one of the routes to a fresh start. Following a healthcare model, furniture surfaces in education spaces are expected to be easily cleaned and often cleaned. That furniture features the award-winning finishes by Kwalu.

Right products plus processes equal cleaner education surfaces

Keeping the college and university common areas clean and well maintained is important for many reasons. Health and safety are, of course, at the top of the list. But did you know that most college students surveyed believe the cleanliness of their environment results in a higher level of productivity from the students themselves. Seating with surfaces that can be cleaned with harsh chemicals, including undiluted bleach, and occasional tables with solid surface tops are what’s needed on campus.

Products for engaged and collaborative learning

Education design trends are on the fast track to furniture with built in chargeability, secure WiFi connections, and tables and chairs with integrated lighting and touch screens for learning and entertainment. Kwalu’s Lecco Bar Height and Counter Height tables is an easy fit in any size space. These tables come in multiple sizes. An optional power module, if added, houses two power plugs and two USB ports to the tables keeping students connected during study time. Add the easily cleaned Madrid Bar and Counter stools, made of Classic Kwalu material and students are prepped and ready for learning.

The surroundings affect a student’s overall experience

The quality of a learning institution is determined by more than just the course work. Modern, accessible, and comfortable furniture provide an opportunity for continued growth in a shared space where knowledge and creativity can flourish. With Kwalu’s fresh and stylish furniture for education a learning environment is created that is furnished for the future.
