BIG和WeWork合作创建了纽约市第一所 WeGrow学校，作为一个互动的学习环境，支持有意识的教育方法，培养21世纪儿童的成长，精神和思想。
该学校专为3至9岁的儿童设计，位于曼哈顿切尔西附近的WeWork总部，拥有各种空间，包括四个教室，灵活的工作室，社区空间，多功能工作室，艺术工作室，音乐室和其他戏剧。
BIG and WeWork have collaborated to create the first WeGrow school in New York City, as an interactive learning landscape that supports a conscious approach to education, nurturing the growth, spirit and mind of the 21st century child.
Designed for children between the ages of three and nine, the school is located in WeWork’s HQ in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, and features a variety of spaces including four classrooms, flexible workshops, community space, multi-purpose studio, art studio, music room and other playscapes.
学校内的隔板和搁板一直保持在儿童的高度，允许窗户的自然光线进入建筑物的深处。
每个年龄段的三个不同的搁架水平偶尔会创建各种活动口袋，给人一种舒适，安全和社区的感觉，同时让教师始终充分了解空间。
悬挂在天花板上并由毛毡制成的声学云反映了自然界中不同的图案 – 指纹，珊瑚，风景和月亮 – 并用Ketra灯泡照亮，这些灯泡根据一天中的时间变化颜色和强度。
墙上的俏皮感觉角落是儿童，父母和老师灵活的工作和会议区。孩子们可以参加大脑拼图，这是一个全能的休息室，可以拆开玩耍和学习。
Partitions and shelves within the school have been kept to the level of the child, allowing natural light from the windows to reach deep inside the building.
Three different shelving levels for each age group curve occasionally to create various activity pockets and give a feeling of comfort, safety and community, while allowing teachers to have full perspective of the space at all times.
Acoustic clouds, hanging from the ceiling and made of felt, reflect the different patterns in nature – fingerprint, coral, landscape and moon – and illuminate with Ketra bulbs that shift in color and intensity based on the time of day.
Playful felt nooks in the walls serve as a flexible work and meeting area for both children, parents, and teachers. Children can join in the brain puzzle, an all-felt lounge that can be taken apart for playing and learning.
