Open space concept

No physical walls = Willem de Kooning School prides itself for having an open-space concept
However, there are some boundaries on the floor taping/marking (Yellow mark on the ground)

Open spaces can have a negative impact on concentration
Students can be easily disrupted by outside

Group Table

No individual tables (in order to promote gatherings with each other, exchange of ideas)

Lights

Big windows: light as a big influence on happiness
Interesting how students are using them as lightboxes, sense of practicality

Free discussion

No stage for the teacher: less hierarchy = students and teacher seen as equals in terms of space. (of course there is hierachy, but!)
Feels like more discussion, the teacher and the students are in a circle

Colors

The school is mostly painted in black. Colors have meanings (maybe black provides a cozy feeling, black absorbs light)
Very corporate and clean (different of the ideia of an art school)

Colors influence the way we perceive spaces
Yellow provides a vibrant feeling: giving you breaktime/separation from the black space.
Piano as a creative escape

Habits

Water purifier and disposable cup standing at the entrance of the building.
Easy accessibility & Standing out well
By having cups for free, we get more influenced to change our habits.

Places of passage

A place of passage: A lot of print materials are hanging on the wall.
It is not just a passage because it becomes a useful space: a place to take a break and have a chatting.
