Forest

Forest is a desk partition that enables students to focus on their studies without having negative feelings. In an elementary school in the Netherlands, some students had difficulty concentrating on their assignments during a class and isolated themselves from others to focus. Forest addresses their negative feeling to use desk partition with playfully shaped partition design that let students build up their semi-closed space through creative process. It gives them autonomy to decide how high and how dense the Forest is. Also, its playfulness encourages other classmates to join the building.
