Abstract

The present project is part of the European Project Semester program imparted by the Oslo and Akershus University College (HiOA) during the Spring of 2017. The project is conducted to design a student workspace that fosters group collaboration for a new HiOA campus that will be be built in Lillestrøm by 2023. In the design specifications, no spatial limitations are given. Thus, the main focus of the project centers in developing the specific furniture inside the workspace, which has to supply students with everything they need to work properly, according to modern-era learning methods. This means the products designed must be suitable for any granted workspace, regardless the dimensions and shape. The project contains project management, research covering different fields, concept development phase description and interviews for concept testing with users. A small furniture product line has been created,together with some suggestions to create an optimal student workspace suitable for open rooms.
