Taylor Design is a strategy-based design firm with practices in Architectural Design, Interior Design and Design Strategy; with offices in northern and southern California.
Rather than requiring only the acquisition of facts, education as a field is gravitating towards an emphasis on acquiring learning skillsāunderstanding how to get the information one needs, and knowing how to synthesize it and navigate complex situations.
FOCUS ON THE USERS
Our design approach assumes that diverse groups may have different educational design needs; in addition, adaptability and flexibility in the design of educational spaces is critical to allow spaces to adapt to the changes that are inevitable in learning, technology, and communities.
FOCUS ON TECHNOLOGY
Technology has also changed the way students learn and access information inside learning environments, with multi-disciplinary learning projects bringing students into the community more often, giving them a chance to experience how things work in the world outside of their campuses.
Our approach
At Taylor Design we understand the need to manifest strong capabilities with regard to designing for education, and working with academic master-plans and strategic plans to design environments that maximize learning potentials.
STUDENT WELLNESS
Higher education institutions are increasingly looking to integrate student well-being practices, programs, and facilities, with the goal of integrating health and wellness as a part of the campus culture.
SCIENCE + TECHNOLOGY
Research universities play a unique and important role in the higher education space, and as such they require adequate systems and infrastructure to conduct quality research.
