Entry Description

The task is to design a spatial learning pod at the Language Centre of City University of Hong Kong to give verbal & non-verbal communication trainings for students in view of speech pose, tone, content and pronunciation accuracy.

Inspired by A.I. being “Key” for future, the Pod is made in such plan form. Its futuristic envelope houses A.I. equipment & sound-absorptive materials inside, where individual practice, A.I. analysis & recommendations take place.

As a personalised learning device, the Pod enhances unique educational experiences through personalization and tech-efficiency.
