About Concord Heimilisfræðistofa

Concord er heimilisfræðistofa hönnuð fyrir framhaldsskóla í Hong Kong. Rýmið, sem er 1500 fermetrar að stærð, er skipulagt út frá sporöskjulaga formi, lögun sem valin var til að tjá samheldni og samveru. Námssvæðið er staðsett í miðju sporöskjunnar, á meðan þvottahús, baksturs-, undirbúnings- og kaffisvæði eru staðsett í kringum það. Gólfflísar í ljósgráum, dökkgráum og viðaráferðum afmarka hvert svæði og endurspegla bogadregna vatnsbláa loftið. Hvítir, viðar- og vatnsbláir tónar skapa róandi umgjörð fyrir sameiginlegt nám og samvinnu.

Design Challenge
The Hong Kong education system is designed to be more quantitative in decades. School environment is uncharacterized and lacks attention to students needs. We think that every space should be user friendly and unique. The designer hope to activates a new learning experience for the students through the oval structure of Home Management room. Through better learning environment, students can learn different skills, build up confidence and develop correct values.
Research
The one-way communication between teacher and students are not effective and decrease the interest in students to learn. School is not a factory; education should be student based to find out the potential from everyone. The newly designed Home Economics room can increase the efficiency of teaching and learning between teacher and students, as well as looking after individual difference. In the learning process, students develop interpersonal relationship, life skills that prepare them to blend into a harmonious society.
Inspiration
The whole space is structured by an oval. Students learn in this oval room and build up relationship. This design also provides a safe feeling for students. Lake blue curved ceiling increase the feeling of peacefulness. Outside the oval, recessed downlight surrounded everyone to provide warm spacing. We choose white, wood and lake blue as the main color in order to let students feel warm and comfortable while learning.
Project Duration
The project finished in Feb 2022 in Hong Kong Red Swastika Society Tai Po Secondary School.
Operation Flow
In terms of planning the space, we divided different areas according to the oval. In the middle of the oval is the learning area. There are different areas outside the oval : the laundry area ,the baking area and the preparation area. The cafe area has professional level coffee machines for students to brew coffee and practice their latte art skills for their professional development. In addition, the designer hide a desk with power socket for the sewing class. The floor tile consists of light grey, dark grey and wood grain ovals to divide different areas. It corresponds the ceiling to increase the interest of space.
