Forest

Forest is a desk partition that enables students to focus on their studies with positive emotions. Through observation research in a classroom of a Dutch elementary school where two students with ADHD were also included, it was noticed that some students had difficulty concentrating on their assignments during a class and had to isolate themselves from others to focus. While isolation is the best way for them to study, it causes awkwardness and disconnection with other students. Forest is a set of desk partition and slot profiles that attaches to a desk. The playfully shaped desk partitions in Forest let students build up the semi-closed space that helps them concentrate while creating their original scenery. It motivates them to decide how high and how dense the Forest (partitions) would be.
