Seeding Space – Living Space at UFF Engineering School

The article discusses a Living Space designed and implemented at UFF Engineering's School. Coordinated by the Industrial Design Course of that School. In a participatory manner, students from Engineering, Design and Architecture, Professors and administrative technicians worked to create the Space. In 2019 we were invited by the Management of the School of Engineering to think about a Coworking Living Space for the Academic Community. The School had been approached by the UFF Rector's Team with a proposal to enhance the students' mental health. It was reported that one of the needs was to belong to different living spaces, outside the classroom. In this way, they saw the possibility of creating multifunctional space for complementary to the classes. The space presented is located in the corridor that had been a deposit of furniture discarded by the School. Thus, there was infiltration, little light. In addition to the Visual Identity of the place, the Design team planned furniture from the discarded material, which fit in the place and did not hinder the flow of people, were of low cost, low environmental impact and invited to use.
