As an industry leader for creating adaptable spaces in the education (and commercial) sectors, Lotus products are designed to meet the changing needs of school designs. They are the perfect solution to deliver a flexible, modern and innovative learning environment.
The future of our education spaces has become a major topic of debate in the post COVID-19 world. The question of how can we make our schools safer and more adaptable for both students and teachers is now more important than ever.
The Acoustic Slider Range, developed in conjunction with architects, was created by Lotus to meet the needs of open-learning classrooms and to accommodate a wide range of teaching philosophies and styles. With safety, ease of use and great design front of mind, Lotus Acoustic Sliders are available in solid and glass finishes that help to maximise light transfer whilst achieving inclusive visual connectivity.

The company works with architects, builders and educators to create innovative design solutions. They efficiently manufacture and install products meeting relevant legislation (Disability and Discrimination Act Compliance) and building requirements. The flexibility and adaptive nature of Lotus Operable Wall and Acoustic Slider products assist people to experience spaces in a variety of ways, helping them learn and teach in ways tailored to individual and group needs.
The quality of their work is evident in the award winning projects their products have been a part of. Richmond High School, one of Australia’s first vertical state high schools, designed by Hayball Architects won the Best Secondary School Project for the 2019 Victorian School Design Awards with the use of Lotus Acoustic Sliders and Operable Walls.
