Samenvatting

As education one of the most important factors in a person’s life, it is crucial have an effective and supportive study environment in order to succeed. This report allowed research to be done and provided the tools for the commissioner to develop an effective educational and supportive study space in Amsterdam.

Thijs Meijer commissioned another Hotelschool student, Famke Wielenga and I to investigate the extend of demand for a new concept, We Study We Grow (WSWG). WSWG is a concept which focuses on two elements and therefore is a co-working concept. The first is creating a productive study space in Amsterdam (We study), and the second provides the students with the opportunity to develop themselves internally by facilitating activities such as mindfulness and coaching (We Grow). The task therefore challenged us to research the demand for WSWG and the design wanted by the target.
