Introducing the concept of constructive education in classroom furniture.
In the '90s the Chilean education system changed, it take a new direction from the conductive to the constructivism philosophy, in which the boy build his own knowledge together with his pairs. The education change, but what about the educational environment? The classroom stays the same as always, and with the new pedagogy develops new problems. The main issue of this situation was that the old furniture was designed to work alone and the new way of teaching needs to work in groups.
