About The Entry

The concept of the Biosphelia classroom revolves around nature, aiming to create an environment that align with NTU’s Gaia 5 core values: collaboration, collective, co-create, co-curate, and community. By integrating elements of the natural world, the design seek to bring the outdoors inside and make the space a serene and inspiring hub for students.



As students step into the Biosphelia, they are greeted by a flood of natural light and the refreshing sight of greenery. The atmosphere is immediately calming, a stark contrast to the typical, sterile classroom environment. The scent of fresh green paint and the gentle sound of plants dancing along the wall set the stage for a day of focused and inspired learning. At the center of the classroom, furniture allows the room to transform for various activities, from group projects to quiet reading. Users may appreciate the harmonious blend of comfort, functionality and aesthetic appeal



The Biosphelia classroom becomes more than just a space for learning; it evolves into a dynamic, nurturing environment where students can thrive academically and emotionally. The design not only enhances educational experience but also instills a deep appreciation for nature in them, fostering a generation that values and protects the natural world.
