About the project

Outreach is a service for designing spaces in schools intended for physical activity and outreach The spaces are designed in studios with and for children with ADHD who often face major obstacles in the school environment as I know firsthand.

Vegna truflunar í boðefnastýringu heilans skortir börn með ADHD dópamín en áhrifaríkasta leiðin til að framleiða dópamín er með hreyfingu. Hönnun skólarýma gerir sjaldan ráð fyrir hentugum svæðum fyrir börn með ADHD, til hreyfingar og útrásar fyrir hreyfiþörf.

The space in the exhibition is made from a studio where children from Fellaskóli in Fellabær were allowed to create their dream space.

Outlet

Outlet is a service dedicated to designing space in schools that promote physical activity and emotional release. These spaces are developed through workshops with and for children diagnosed with ADHD, who frequently encounter significant challenges in the school environment - a reality I am personally familiar with.

Due to disruptions in their brains neurotransmitter regulation, children with ADHD often experience dopamine deficiency. The most effective way to stampate dopamine production is through physical movement.

The exhibition space is based on a workshop in wich children from Fellaskóli in Fellabær were invited to create their own dream environment.
