After assessing the state of the facilities, looking at the capacity of the space by taking measurements, and evaluating the possibilities in the first instance, we sat down with the client to understand their needs. Having a background in the furniture for cultural spaces and libraries<\/strong> sector, we were able to make provisional proposals to guide and facilitate communication with the institute’s administration. <\/p>\nThe first thing to consider was the capacity the space required, as it is frequently used by students during the school year, even during break time. We also had to take into account that it was a secondary school; therefore, we could not use just any type of material; the requirements were: resistance and durability. The last of the demands to consider was that it had to be a multipurpose space<\/strong>; meaning that, at any given time, academic activities such as classes or training talks, etc., could take place there.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>Taking all these management points from the Briefing into account, we moved on to the next phase: making proposals based on the actual space. To do this, we created a floor plan with real measurements and began the distribution and sizing of the furniture to determine the actual capacity of the space, develop several options, and select the best one.<\/p>\n
With the proposals in hand, we had a second meeting with the client to explain the type of furniture and the layout we were proposing. After presenting our options, the most suitable one was chosen, and the type of furniture was evaluated. Once agreement was reached on all points, we proceeded with the refurbishment of the space, which initially looked like this.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

For the desks<\/strong> program, it had to follow the same characteristics as the shelving<\/strong> we chose.
