Saturn + Mercury
// State of the art school science furniture.
The mood and atmosphere possibilities of a Saturn & Mercury environment need not be confined to science and can inspire creativity across a range of subjects. The environment created can also be used to great effect for staff recruitment, meetings, presentations and parents evenings.
With its compelling aesthetic it cannot help but stimulate student interest and draw them to a subject which for some may have had limited appeal in the past.
An optional low energy LED light is housed in the support drum and illuminates the worktop by taking advantage of the wonderfully translucent qualities of Corian.
Pushing the boundaries in the design of educational environments.
The Saturn & Mercury Workstations
Smart, modern, sophisticated, hi-tech and stylish – a 21st century design for modern teaching and tomorrow’s scientists.
The Saturn circular workstation will seat 8/9 students whether interacting with each other, or by grouping around to face one way.
The Mercury ovoid workstation will seat 10/11 students in a manner which allows them to work in smaller groups and with minimum disruption to face forward.
Features
- Flexibility – equally suited to chemistry, biology, physics or integrated science.
- Teacher can operate equally well from more than one demo/lecture position and easily move about the classroom, facilitating small groups or individual students.
- More space efficient – allows students to sit comfortably either in group or lecture mode. Four workstations can be accommodated in most labs and this will comfortably accommodate students, where as this would be impossible with more traditional furniture designs and layouts.
- Easy access to evenly distributed gas, water and electrical services.
- Integral service console: Seamlessly jointed to the worktop – prevents ingress of liquids and build up of litter. Houses and evenly distributes gas, electrical and data outlets. Provides a platform for apparatus or materials to be placed out of the way when not in use. Helps create a hi-tech modern laboratory environment.
- Optional sink lids to maximize useable work surface area.
- LED underlit option.
