Building Learning Spaces that Support Educational Journeys and a Greener Planet


Listen Later

It's no secret that many learning spaces in schools and daycare are far from what we'd consider healthy or inspiring, a concern magnified by the prevalence of "fast furniture" — inexpensive, low-quality items that are quickly bought and discarded. But amidst this unsettling trend, one company has been trying to change this.  

Enter Natural Pod, founded by Bridgitte Alomes, a company on a mission to revolutionize learning spaces for young individuals. Natural Pod isn't just another furniture manufacturer; it's a benefit company and a certified B Corporation, aligning its operations with the highest standards of social and environmental impact. At the heart of the company is the idea that learning spaces should be the product of intentional conversation and collaboration, fostering environments where both students and educators are not just present, but engaged, inspired, and eager to be together.

Advocating for a future where every child has access to a learning environment that supports their educational journey while also respecting our planet. We are really excited to be joined by Bridgitte to share her story and the vision behind Natural Pod
