Edspaces is one of the highlights of our year. At TeamPAR, we are passionate about creating spaces where learning can thrive. We love that Edspaces showcases what’s next in educational environments—ideas that push classroom design beyond furniture and into experience, inclusion, and flexibility. From hands-on learning tools to behind-the-scenes innovations that save time and money, this year’s conference delivered no shortage of inspiration.
As we do every year, TeamPAR walked the floor with one goal in mind: identify solutions that truly elevate how students learn, educators teach, and schools operate. Out of hundreds of exhibitors, five stood out for their creativity, functionality, and real-world impact.
Here are TeamPAR’s High 5 from Edspaces—our top picks shaping the future of learning spaces.
Muzo – Juice Bot
Where technology, wellness, and design collide
One of the most talked-about innovations on the show floor was Muzo’s Juice Bot, and for good reason. At first glance, it feels playful—almost like functional art. But spend a few minutes interacting with it, and you realize it’s so much more.
Juice Bot is part device charging station, part calming environment tool, and part learning aid. Students can charge devices while engaging with soothing soundscapes or audio-based learning experiences, creating a multisensory moment within the classroom or common area.
In an era where student focus, regulation, and engagement are top priorities, Juice Bot meets students exactly where they are—blending technology with wellness rather than competing for attention.
Why we love it:
- Supports device charging without clutter
- Encourages calm, focused learning through sound
- Adds character and creativity to classrooms and media spaces
Juice Bot is a reminder that learning environments don’t have to be sterile to be effective. Sometimes, a little personality goes a long way.
Fleetwood – ADA Desk
Inclusive design without calling attention to differences
True inclusion is thoughtful, seamless, and dignified—and Fleetwood’s ADA Desk exemplifies that.
Designed to accommodate wheelchairs or multiple students, this desk integrates effortlessly into the classroom. There’s no visual cue that it’s “different,” which helps eliminate the stigma often associated with adaptive furniture.
Why we love it:
- ADA-compliant without isolating students
- Supports collaboration and flexibility
- Blends seamlessly with standard classroom furniture
This desk proves that accessibility doesn’t have to be obvious to be effective—and that small design decisions can create meaningful and lasting equity in learning spaces.
Media Technologies – Magnetic Modular Circulation Desks
Flexible learning, simplified
Flexibility is essential in today’s learning environments. Media Technologies’ Magnetic Modular Circulation Desks bring flexibility with a refreshingly simple solution.
Using magnetic connections, these desks can be reconfigured quickly and easily, without tools, added hardware, or maintenance headaches. Whether in a library, media center, or collaborative learning zone, staff can adapt layouts in minutes to meet changing needs.
Why we love it:
- Tool-free reconfiguration using magnets
- Ideal for libraries and shared learning spaces
- Reduces maintenance and setup time
This solution removes friction from flexible design, empowering educators and administrators to evolve spaces as learning does.
Bio Fit – Fold and Roll Booths
Collaboration, wherever it’s needed
With space at a premium on many campuses, flexibility and mobility are more important than ever. Bio Fit’s Fold and Roll Booths were a standout solution for modern collaboration needs.
These mobile booths support meetings, virtual learning, streaming, and teamwork. And then they fold and roll away when no longer needed! They’re great for campuses that need privacy and functionality without permanent construction.
Why we love it:
- Mobile and space-efficient
- Supports hybrid learning and collaboration
- Works in libraries, hallways, and shared spaces
From impromptu student meetings to quiet zones for virtual instruction, these booths allow collaboration to happen anywhere, on demand.
Paragon – Receiving Plate
The innovation you don’t see—but feel
Paragon’s Receiving Plate earned its place in TeamPAR’s High 5 by solving a problem most schools don’t even realize they have.
This behind-the-scenes solution cuts furniture installation time in half while offering adjustable and mobile options. This means faster installs, reduced labor costs, and greater flexibility for future reconfigurations.
Why we love it:
- Reduces installation time significantly
- Supports adjustability and mobility
- Benefits both installers and schools
It’s a smart reminder that efficiency matters just as much as aesthetics, and that operational improvements have a direct impact on learning environments.
Keeping an Eye on What’s Next
At TeamPAR, staying ahead of educational design trends isn’t just about chasing what’s new—it’s about identifying what works. Each of these High 5 selections reflects a deeper shift in how schools think about space: more inclusive, more flexible, more human-centered.
We travel far and wide to make these discoveries so you don’t have to, and so we can bring the most innovative, practical solutions directly to your classrooms, libraries, and campuses.
If you’re ready to explore how these ideas can come to life in your learning spaces, let’s connect.
The future of learning deserves spaces designed to support it.
