<br/><br/> The researchers encountered serious problems with the current<br/>functionality of the working areas for the teachers. This resulted in the<br/>conceptualization of the creation of Aestheform. The focus of this research is on<br/>addressing the shortage of the appropriate working spaces for teachers at Jose<br/>Corazon de Jesus Elementary School, whose existing spaces are inadequate for<br/>teamwork or comfort. The research aims to design a flexible and ergonomic<br/>workspace for teachers in the education sector, transforming a school library into<br/>a specialist workspace. The proposed strategy includes modular furniture, a<br/>multifunctional storage system, and a portable projector with a screen, enhancing<br/>their organization, collaboration, and meeting capabilities. The research utilized<br/>user-centered design, collecting data through classroom observations,<br/>questionnaires, and interviews with educators. The findings led to the development<br/>of practical design concepts for teaching staff. The prototype includes a marine<br/>wood cabinet, integrated storage compartments, reconfigurable modular furniture,<br/>and PVC panels for aesthetic and functional purposes.<br/>The production process prioritized durability, ease of use, and low cost for<br/>small learning environments. The prototype was field-tested by 100 users,<br/>including 30 teachers, 65 students, and 5 makers, to assess functionality, comfort,<br/>safety, beauty, and pedagogical impact. The results of the evaluation showed an<br/>extremely high level of satisfaction across all dimensions measured, with ratings<br/>of (4.57) in functionality, (4.15) in comfort and ease of access, (4.12) in durability<br/>and upkeep, 4.72 in aesthetics, and 4.56 in safety and practical use.
