neurodiversity in Schools

In schools designed with the needs of neurodiverse students in mind, it is essential to create spaces that support focus, relaxation, and overall comfort. Good acoustics help reduce sensory overload and stress, while soft, enveloping furniture provides a sense of security. Through zoned areas—dedicated spaces for individual work, paired learning, or relaxation—the environment can be adapted to a variety of sensory needs, ensuring calm and comfort throughout the school.

High walls and sound-absorbing materials reduce distracting acoustic and visual stimuli, improving the learning environment. They also provide greater privacy and comfort, promoting concentration and a sense of security - especially for students sensitive to noise and excess stimuli.

calming rhythm

Rocking motion has been proved to have an influence on the nervous system, alleviate tension and stress, and enabling focus. Furniture such as Social_Swing allows for gentle rocking, that facilitate self-regulation and improve creativity. Deflection limitation ensures safety, and the rhythmic motion help students manage their energy and emotions during classes.

safe and welcoming spaces

Zones with welcoming, soft cocooning-type forms create a cozy space, where it is easier to quieten down and focus. Collections such as: Jelly, Flos or Fora Lounge, thanks to their soft, enveloping seats ensure comfort and enable quietening. Soft fabrics and ergonomic shapes facilitate self-regulation and reduction of stimulus, which is especially important for students that are sensory sensitive or hyperactive.
