This autism therapy centre required clever space planning to cater to the different needs of their children and team, without breaking the bank. An Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) therapy centre for children with autism, Early Autism Project Malaysia needed various activity zones with versatile furniture for their children to learn and play in, as well as a comfortable, inspiring workspace for their staffs. See how our team addressed the centre’s needs and transformed the space into a fun and conducive environment for both learning and playing.

A spot where you can be anybody

Let your students’ imagination go wild with this easy role play corner. Simply hang up a TOFTBYN mirror and place a KROKIG clothes stand with some fun costumes beside it. Snow White, a fireman, who do you want to be?

Host tea parties, any time

Set up a cook and eat play area for budding master chefs with DUKTIG play kitchens. LÖVA bed canopies are not just for the bedroom, install them to better define an area and to create a peaceful atmosphere.

Hide in here for an adventure

Who doesn’t like a secret hideout? HÖVLIG children’s tent provides a sheltered nook for the little ones to hide, rest and play. It’s easy to assemble and just as easy to fold up when playtime is over.

Let the ideas flow

An inspiring meeting room encourages better flow of ideas. Our LOBERGET/MALSKÄR chair is not just pleasant to the eye, its safety castors have a pressure-sensitive brake mechanism that keeps the chair in place when you stand up, and releases automatically when you sit down.

An open workspace for teachers

Using shared desks encourages discussions and collaboration. Natural and warm colours such as wood and white go well together to create a relaxing atmosphere.

For quick chats or long discussions

Invite nature into this welcoming discussion nook with NILSOVE armchairs that are handwoven with rattan and sturdy bamboo. Use KALLAX shelving unit as a room divider and easy storage for both sides of the room.

Cosy and space-saving pantry

Small pantry? No problem. With the right solutions, you can create a cosy space with enough seatings and storage for everyone. Here, we added NORDVIKEN bar stools to the kitchen counter for additional seating space.

Storage you can sit on

Maximise your space with METOD cabinet that is not just good for storage, but safe to be seated on too. Line up some vibrant coloured cushions on it to add fun vibes to the room.

Pleasant looking nook

Start a different conversation in this corner. Make use of wall space to show off your favourite items using MÅLERÅS picture ledges and KNOPPÄNG picture frames. FEJKA artificial plants are a great way to add greenery into the room without the need of a green thumb.

Versatile classroom furniture

Be it for study lessons or physical play, our robust and lightweight MAMMUT range makes it easy to move things around so you can utilise the space for different purposes.

Easy one-to-one sessions

A set of MELLTORP/ADDE table and chairs is all you need to create room for one-to-one sessions. To create a more casual vibe, add TROFAST storage combination and throw in some cushions to serve both as a bench seat and storage.

Create a green oasis on the patio

Need a breath of fresh air? ASKHOLMEN dining sets are perfect for enjoying a meal outdoors. Made from durable, sustainably sourced acacia, both tables and chairs can be easily folded up and stashed away to save space.
