Discovery STEM Academy

Integrate STEM curriculum into overall design.Represent the four elements of the holistic student (Leadership, Nutrition, Fitness and Discovery) in the design. Engage students in authentic problem-based learning through discovery and innovation.

By infusing the design of the school directly into the STEM curriculum, we were able to create a truly hands-on educational approach throughout every inch of the space — both inside and out. From flexible learning centers, exploration-based laboratories, edible gardens, and outdoor learning classrooms, each element of the school was designed to encourage and facilitate discovery while minimizing distractions and improving focus.

The main corridor of STEM Academy, aptly named the “Learning Lane,” provides displays and inquisitive spaces to nurture spontaneous learning. To help students engage freely with the material, these spaces are outfitted with dynamic seating, such as height-adjustable chairs, and stools, as well as versatile and adjustable work surfaces that encourage engagement in both individual and collaborative projects.
