A collective of educators and students engages in immersive art- and design-driven practice to reimagine higher-education and primary-school teaching and learning at, and beyond, the University of Teacher Education. 

Rooted in curiosity, care and attentiveness to diverse histories and voices, the collective offers open-ended impulses that anyone can adapt, question or extend across a growing constellation of educational hubs.

EduHub: Prototype featured in the exhibition “Infusion”


EduHub Prototype (featured in the exhibition INFUSION):


This modular prototype represents one possible configuration of an EduHub. Designed as a flexible learning environment, the structure can be assembled as a single tent or extended into a sequence of interconnected spaces – open, semi-enclosed, or fully enclosed – depending on the pedagogical needs. All materials used were sourced from Offcut Basel, emphasizing circularity and material reuse.

While presented here in an exhibition setting, the EduHub is conceived for use in workshop formats or longer learning sessions. It is intended to activate public or non-formal spaces, such as parks, courtyards, or cultural venues, as experiential learning sites. The prototype supports diverse interactions with and between children, students, and educators by reframing space as an active co-learner.

This version of the EduHub was exhibited as part of INFUSION (09/05/2025–22/05/2025), the final showcase of the Incubator for Design Cultures at the Basel Academy of Art and Design FHNW. Integrated into the structure are two screens displaying the Emerging Space website, offering visitors a live window into the broader educational research context.
