A multifunctional space designed to accommodate the variety of needs present within Oak Field, a special needs school. Inspired by the enchanted woodlands in Shakespeare's Midsummer Night’s Dream, this long-term installation aims to assist individuals with sensory processing disorders develop coping skills and regulate their brain’s response to stimuli. This modular design took into account the individual differences of the children. Some children needed to increase mental stimulation, while others were better suited to an environment that would aid in calming them down. The individual panels can easily be moved to create smaller ‘breakout’ spaces, ideal for 1 on 1 reading sessions.
