At a time when the COVID pandemic was at it's peak and the ramifications of socially distanced home-schooling were coming to light, our team was challenged with showing customers how Flex's vast network of suppliers and capabilities could be leveraged to create new and exciting technology with a global impact.
This concept was created for school children, pre-K to 5th grade, who benefit from a socially distanced, simple-to-use technology interface. It can also be used for home schooled children, and those with medical conditions who require remote learning.
A dedicated workspace in the home that provides students the necessary tools to match the in-person learning experience. The dedicated space creates a physical and healthy separation between a child’s home life and school life.
After multiple iterations and internal ideation, we developed a desk that balances a familiar and contemporary form with futuristic capabilities. Parents and children should be able to choose how and when to use education technology. So, we created a way to hide many of the desk’s technology elements when not in use.
