Muuto's Fresh Take On Education.

The design of learning environments plays a significant role in student success. By improving learning environments schools can potentially raise student achievement and lower teacher turnover. Many universities and institutions are making plans to provide classrooms and student spaces that offer a more positive learning environment.

The recurring challenge; ageing facilities catering to youthful, vibrant students. Forward thinking designers are highlighting the heritage characteristics, paying acute attention to detail and inserting functional, modern designs to refresh, re-inspire and catering to the comfortability of students.


At every turn Muuto is committed to exploring bold new ideas and providing a platform for emerging design voices.

Applying this to all aspects of the educational built environment, the brand carefully explores every element of public spaces and the myriad of learning spaces that contribute to the educational experience. Muuto's recognition of the potential of the new lies closely with an honouring of the old. The brand consistently pays homage to years of rich, distinctive Scandinavian design heritage.

EXPLORE THE COLLECTION

Marrying the functionality, craftsmanship, and honest expression of traditional Scandinavian
design with contemporary forms and manufacturing, Muuto combines the best of both worlds.
The result is a timeless, stylish catalogue of diverse products that celebrates difference and encourages divergent thinking about the role of design in creating positive environments.

Muuto's championing of diversity is perfectly aligned with the ongoing paradigm shift in
today's educational spaces, which recognises the presence of multiple distinctive, competing needs.
The same design solution that works for one user may not necessarily perform for another; the same environment that nurtures someone on their journey to realising their full potential may be stifling to someone else.


Muuto understands that the best way to balance competing needs is not to address them with a universal solution, but rather to celebrate difference and provide users with choice.

Uppsala University
Sweden
Placed in the heart of the Swedish city of Uppsala's Botanical Gardens is its university, founded in 1477. Now, more than 500 years later, Uppsala University has opened its new building—Segerstedthuset— by architects 3XN and interior designers Indicum. Created from the idea of a house in the park, Segerstedthuset brings feelings of nature into the educational institution, using Muuto designs as key designs throughout.

"We chose to implement a lot of Muuto designs through furniture and lighting throughout the interiors. The modern as well as organic design language, paired with the color scheme and materials of Muuto designs, were a perfect match for Segerstedthuset. Furthermore, Muuto's designs present a refined balance between the modern but the timeless – identical to our idea for the interior concept," explained Kristin Östberg CEO, Indicum Architects
