Crafting a Distinct Maker Atmosphere through an Ultra Factory Concept
Inspired by the concept of “Ultra Factory,” the design cultivates a makerspace-like environment that encourages students to create unique and expressive works. By incorporating areas of high-saturation blue, the design adds visual vibrancy while softening the typically sterile impression associated with laboratory spaces. Transparent corrugated panels and metallic materials enhance brightness and visual tension within the classroom, creating a professional yet comfortable setting that aligns with the spirit of hands-on craftsmanship.
