Movable Sofa Chair
Hon has developed a sofa chair on wheels with portable desktop. Hope to have more information to share on this soon!
Movable Couches
Movable Couches and soft chairs have wheels or casters to easily re-purpose learning spaces as needed and move the biggest space eating furniture in the classroom ever. This category is a tough one as you just won't find them at your local furniture store or catalog.
We do predict a change as enterprising individuals and maybe a few companies bring the Starbuck's cozy feel right into the classroom. The mocha digital connection is happening all over America right now and this generation of digital kids will change everything in the classroom.
In the meantime, here are a couple of couches that could work well in a classroom, just add some casters and you would be good to go!
