When architecture and interior design firm AEI, were designing this school in Bogota, Colombia, they decided to introduce bright colors and fun furniture.

The walls of various areas of the school have a honeycomb pattern with slots designed for storing cushioned seats. When certain seats are removed, reading nooks appear, ideal for kids that want a quiet getaway.

The cushioned seats also encourage play as they can position them in shapes and stack them up. Also, they become a type of puzzle for the students when it is time to put them all away.
