Makerspace for STEAM Learning
Transfer High School Design
“Makerspace for STEAM learning” aims to design a learning environment that supports the new curriculum at Forsyth Satellite Academy, both in space and community. By creating an open floor plan, the boundaries between each discipline are eliminated to foster transdisciplinary education and collaboration. Through the use of resilient materials across all planes, such as homasote and self-healing surfaces, students have the freedom to be as creative and bold as they want and make anywhere a space for learning and making. Color as my main concept uses red, blue, and yellow to represent the existing art, math, and science rooms respectively. The space is a gradient of colors where the shared space between these three rooms is a bomb of colors resulting from the merging of these disciplines, each represented by a primary color.
