The challenge

A private non-profit initiative wanted to offer free, first-class education “for anyone, anywhere”. It needed a platform that spoke to three audiences at once (students, teachers and parents) and made science feel close and fun for primary school kids.

The project stayed at the design stage: it was never built due to lack of funding. We show it as a concept model, with the platform thought through and designed end to end.

The solution

We designed the whole platform, from the home page to each lesson:

  • “When learning and fun go hand in hand”: a home page with direct entry points for students, teachers and parents.
  • Courses by grade: from first to sixth grade, each with its units, from science in the kitchen and the world of plants to solar energy, electromagnets and creating with artificial intelligence and Scratch.
  • Classroom-ready lessons: each lesson has goals, activities (presentation, experiment, discussion and drawing) and a list of materials, plus live-streamed lessons.
  • Ideas lab: hands-on STEAM activities to boost creativity.
  • Access by profile: sign-up as teacher, student or parent, with Google or Facebook login.

The mobile version reorganizes the offer into tracks (Steam Noobs, Boots and Proos, Economics and finance, Computing and Ceramics workshop). All with a playful identity: colorful strokes, hand-drawn illustrations and a handwritten typeface for titles.

Results

The project never went into production, but it left a complete model ready to build: the content architecture by grade and unit, the journey for each profile and the visual system, on desktop and mobile.
