This week, we switch gears and explore the role of space design in learning. Lisa Shaffer, principal at Alloy Architecture, shares how she designed the interior of Learning Lab Wichita with both purpose and possibility in mind. Drawing on more than 22 years in the design industry, Lisa aligned mission, function and flexibility across the Lab’s 16,000-square-foot space. With its open concept and floor-to-ceiling windows, the space does more than support learning — it’s helping educators and cities imagine what modern education hubs can be.
