Boston, MA – Environments at Work has completed the installation of furniture for the EC School in New York City. The school selected Environments at Work to provide furnishings for 15 classrooms, four offices, two conference rooms, a teachers’ room, and a student lounge.
The EC Schools are part of an organization established in 1905 by Ethel Yabsley and Madeline Sceberras, who opened a small school for the children of British naval officers stationed in Malta at the start of the 20th century. The schools have locations in London, Cambridge and Brighton, United Kingdom; Cape Town, South Africa; Boston, Mass.; San Diego, Calif.; New York City; and Malta.
Environments at Work collaborated with EC Schools to select all of the furniture products for the new school, and designed the furniture layouts.
“With such a long history of English teaching experience, EC Schools has a well-developed understanding of what works for their students and staff,” said Environments at Work Vice President Patricia Tobin. “Our design and customer service team enjoyed working with the school to select products that meet the school’s international, contemporary identity and provide durable, high quality functionality.”
The architect for the project was TPG Architecture located in New York City.
